Dingmans Falls

The first full weekend of Summer greeted us with highs in the nineties. It was a perfect weekend for light hiking in shaded parks along waterfalls. We enjoyed the falls at Dingmans Ferry and nearby Childs Park and spent some time relaxing in the shade of a hemlock forest.

Small waterfall at the top of the main falls. We enjoyed hiking along streams with mountain laurel along the banks. A nearby hemlock forest was a perfect place for some shade and relaxation.

Nearby Childs Park had some beautiful waterfalls also.

It looks so cool and refreshing. I got to hike into several beautiful waterfalls on my Mount Rainier hikes this week, and am always fascinated by them (and by the power of water). Art
