Kentucky Falls

Today was another beautiful day so the family headed outside for a hike. We decided to check out Kentucky Falls this time. The neat thing about these falls is that two different water sources produce the side by side falls. This hike is 4 miles round trip and is the longest one we have taken this summer. The girls did a great job; L had to be carried about half of it, but she was a trooper. K gave me a run for my money but we both finished the trip, though we were completely exhausted by the end and M hardly broke a sweat.

A view of the valley, isn't it gorgeous?

A green pond we found on our way.
M wants to come back to camp here sometime.

A bug we found on our car.
Not sure what it is, but it was pretty big.

Here is a picture of both falls. Each fall is created by
a different water source. The left is N. Fork Smith River Falls
and the right is Lower Kentucky Falls.

A peak M thought was cool looking.

K loved this view of the valley.
