The headwaters of Grandma Gatewood's trail through the Hocking Hills inaugurates new visitors to the impressive visions yet to come.

Val and I spent a morning in the Old Mans Cave gorge a week ago. Arriving early, there were few others about, and we leisurely hiked in an off and on misty rain, taking our time to adjust our visions to our elegant surroundings.

The color saturations from the rain on the foliage and rocks set the place off well. A great memory for us.

Footprints in Fairyland

A unique look at the special attention that is developed in the Old Man's Cave gorge. The lower bridge replaced a wooden one destroyed in a flood a number of years ago and the upper bridge allows visitors to traverse between the gorge rim trails easily.
