Poconos Waterfalls (October, 2023)

Staying at Hotel Fauchere, Milton PA.

Hotel receptionist told us about the waterfall at the blue bridge.

Raymondskill Waterfall in

Delaware Gap Recreational Area

Having fun with shutterspeed to make water flow!

Same waterfall, different angle is actually a double fall!

Dingman’s Creek, still in Delaware Gap Recreation Area, has multiple small drops and some waterfalls.

Silverthread Falls on Dingman’s Creek.

Easy to see how it got its name!

Taking the Green Trail to Bushkill Falls

Bushkill Falls

A new day of hiking – the Pocono Environmental Education Center – has 12 miles of hiking.

Tumbling Waters, one of the PEEC waterfalls

Taking the trail around Conservation Island in PEEC; beautiful but hard to follow

The Education Center has a Trash Graveyard; a number of graves for trash all specifying how long it takes for the trash to decompose.

Shohola Falls, still in PEEC

A different angle on these beautiful cascading falls

The trail back, as beautiful as the falls

Many cascades in the creeks that all flow into the Delaware River

Not in the Poconos, but the true destination of the trip – this rainbow graces the Queensboro Bridge in Manhattan

Promised Land State Park was listed as a go to place for fall color; it didn’t disappoint.

Little Falls, not huge but certainly scenic

Trail takes you through a tunnel of rhododendron

Lehigh Gorge State Park, Rockport Access: beautiful area heavily used for biking and kayaking

Buttermilk Falls, a short hike down the bike trail in one direction…………………..

Luke’s Falls, a short hike down the bike trail in the other direction………….and thus we bid farewell to our Poconos Waterfalls
