Another Pretty Face2436 viewsCould not resist photographing this little cascade just upstream from Bard Falls, located on the Mountains To Sea Trail.

If you have not hiked the MTS Trail, you need to. The trail is so well kept it turns difficult into "just plain pretty'.

Beginning and End2434 viewsCumberland, MD where the Great Allegheny Passage begins and the C&O Tow Path ends.

A truly neat city, especially downtown.

Anywhere I can sit outside, eat good "Q", wash it down with a beer and get BJ stitched up from her latest bike accident, is a good lace to be in the Summertime.

I saw a description of this falls that nearly discouraged me from going here. Glad I did not listen.

This is a very high waterfall that, even in low water, is spectacular.

At the upper falls, use the trail and don't take a short cut down the Butt Slide like we did, an you will have no trouble down and back. It is quiet strenuous though.
