Parking |
After checking out the main lot, we followed the trail down to a stair case to our left. We walked down, and right back up it again.
|
Starting our walk |
Once we came back up the stairs we made a left (continuing the same direction we first started). A short bit down the paved trail, it splits. We followed the trail left, down to the waterfall we heard about,

Heading down |
Here we go.. the 10' waterfall we heard a little about.

We wanted to continue on the same trail we had taken down to this area. That trail crossed over the waterfall and up a small hill. We made a B-line up the hill and met up with the trail once again.
|
There where stairs? |
|
Heading to the river |
Following this trail will bring you right down near the river. We found a little picnic area and hung out for a bit.

We finally reached a little area that we could stop. A small stream came through with a nice bridge. Very scenic.
|
Where do I go? |
|
Bridge to no where |
This area was definitely my favorite area of the park. The Black River dropped over some rocks, and squeezed between 2 large boulders. The movement in the water along with the hills on both sides just made this area perfect.
Shortly after this area the trail head up a hill away from the river. At the top of the hill the trail turns right.. but we did not see it do so. We followed a path left and found a dead end.

End of the road |
We turned around and headed back on the trail. It wrapped down to a nice bridge, and then up a large hill, past a playground, and back to the original fork in the trail we head found in the beginning of our walk.
