Arriving at a new Twin Falls Trailhead
(Searcy County Line) |
Ready to tackle the wilderness! |
The first part was down an old road
along the
top of a ridge..... |
...and don't foget to turn at the rock
cairns..... |
The second part was a scramble down
the rocky
hillside to the top of Twin Falls. |
Lila was not sure what she had gotten
herself in to....we didn't either! |
...but we made it and the photo opt
begins. |
David was the first to get set up..... |
David's shot in the bright sunshine
today! |
It didn't take us long to get
aquainted
with Twin Falls |
Tim was wishing he had brought
Kip....? |
Glen, our official "sweeper" did a
good job
making sure everyone made it.... |
The falls were nice today....! |
All are down now onward.... |
So how do you get to the other
side....
of course, you hike under the waterfalls. |
Bill checking it out to make sure we
could make
it under, without getting wet....yeah sure! |
I think we have some jumpers? |
I believe we do.....

We do have video too. |
It didn't take them long to get out of
the water.... |
Hey Brenda, the waterfall is behind
you! |
It was our turn.... |
We made it around to Richland Falls
and lunch time. |
Man, it was perfect today.... |
Can you tell we were enjoying the
sunshine? |
...and I think this guy just proposed
to his girlfriend? |
...and I take that as a YES! |
Back to us across the creek.... |
Loud lunch talk! |
Oops, it is time to go, Tim is getting
restless! |
Back at Twin Falls....anyone else want
to jump? |
We were not thinking about our climb
out.....just yet! |
Time to go back under Twin Falls |
...and yes is was a little wet. |
Heading up out of Twin Falls |
Does this look steep? It was! |
Make it to the top of the first bench. |
Some rested a little more than others! |
Dan found a peaceful rock..... |
It was hard getting everyone up and to
begin
out next climb. But we did. |
Yuko was ready, she is always ready. |
Climbing is so much fun! |
But we make it back..... |
It felt good to sit....on a soft seat. |
Sammy was glad to get in his dog
box....he was one
tired puppy!!!!! |
We will soon not forget this hike.....
but it was worth it! |
Until we meet again! |
