ROCKSTALL NATURE PRESERVE IN THE HOCKING HILLS OF OHIO

THAT'S MY WORLD TUESDAY POST

  JUST A FEW MILES FROM LANCASTER,OHIO IN THE BEAUTIFUL HOCKING HILLS AREA OF OHIO WE HAVE ROCKSTALL NATURE PRESERVE. EVEN THOUGH I HAVE LIVED IN LANCASTER MOST OF MY LIFE THIS IS MY FIRST TRIP TO THIS NATURE PRESERVE.

NOTICE IT SAYS NO ROCK CLIMBING. WELL THAT’S PRETTY FUNNY. WAIT TIL YOU SEE THE “STEPS” YOU HAVE TO GO DOWN. THIS AREA IS OFTEN REFERED TO AS A MINIATURE OLD MANS CAVE

GOING DOWN WAS EASIER THAN COMING BACK UP.. LOL

MINIATURE WATERFALLS

TAKE A LOOK AT THESE STEPS

SEE THE STEPS, THE SWITCHBACK AND NOTICE THE DROP TO THE BOTTOM. WHAT CAME TO MY MIND WAS, “MAYBE I SHOULDN’T BE HERE BY MYSELF.”

ON TO THE SECOND FALLS. ACTUALLY THE THIRD IF YOU COUNT THE MINIATURE FALLS.

OK YOU HAVE SEEN THE THREE DIFFERENT WATERFALLS AND OF COURSE THE STREAM. LET’S TAKE A LOOK AT THE “NATURAL BRIDGES” TO CROSS THE MEANDERING STREAM.

 

OR IF YOU ARE LIKE ME ONE CAN JUST FIND A PLACE TO STEP ACROSS.

NOW FOR SOME SCENERY AND PERSPECTIVE

IF I HAD BEEN HERE MUCH EARLIER IN MY LIFE I MIGHT HAVE CARVED MY NAME INTO THE BLACKHAND SANDSTONE.

APRIL 27TH 1924. I WASN’T EVEN BORN YET. I WISH I HAD MY “FLYING BICYCLE” TO GET OUT OF HERE.

AS ALWAYS, “THANKS FOR STOPPING BY.” TO EXPLORE MORE OF OUR WONDERFUL WORLD VISIT THAT'S MY WORLD TUESDAY 

ANOTHER VIEW OF THE “STEPS” GOING BACK UP LOL
