| Krista and I
went on a hike with some friends to see Raven Cliff Falls and
Moonshine Falls in the Caesars Head State Park.

| The red line
shows the trails we hiked to see Raven Cliff Falls and Moonshine
Falls. The length of the hike was 11 miles. Fortunately, we were
going down hill! This was a one way hike and we had a car waiting
for us at the end of the hike. Click here

|
| We started the
day by stopping at the Caesars Head overlook. It was a clear day
and you could see for quite a ways. That is Table Rock towards
the center of the picture. |

|
|
| I didn't get a
very good picture of Raven Cliff falls. This picture was taken
from the observation deck. |

| Krista is
climbing down a wooden ladder on the trail. The trail is very
steep in places. |

We are crossing Mathews Creek
using a cable bridge. The top cable was too tall for Krista so she put her
hand in my pocket and I held on to her very tightly. We made it across
without falling in. |

| Krista is relaxing
on a rock in Mathews Creek. This was the location of one of the
cable bridges. |

| Krista is standing
next to the falling water at Moonshine falls. |
 |
|
|
|
| There is a
"cave" behind the falls and this was supposedly a place
where moonshine was made. Krista is standing next to some long ago
abandoned barrels and "still" parts. . |
