MarylandWhen I think of Maryland, I think of crab cakes.

The state is way more than than sea food. The Western part of Maryland has the two elements needed for waterfalls, hills and water, much the same as their neighbor, West Virginia.

History is everywhere one looks. You gotta go!

VermontFantastic Waterfalls state. From what I read, a lot of Vermont's waterfalls are the result of glacier activity.

Lots of broken large rocks andnarrow gorges.
