Back on June 14, I had a nice hike on the Falls Branch Trail at Lake Catherine State Park (near Hot Springs). This is a wonderfully scenic 1.6-mile semi-loop trail. The highlight is the 10-foot waterfall, Falls Creek Falls. Alternate video link. These are some cell videos I took when from my June 14 hike. […]
Kings River Falls is a cool 10-foot waterfall in east Madison County. Back in February 2013, I had my first visit to the Kings River Falls Trail. (Photos in this post.) The falls were at pretty high water that afternoon. I thought it was awesome. Alternate video link. These are some camera videos I took. The […]

It’s a pretty cool hike as you get to see some nice river vistas, the historic Collier Homestead, and a pioneer rock wall. This loop is made up of […]

The Dogwood Nature Trail is a pleasant 3-mile out-and-back hike (1.5 miles each way) that starts in the Lakeview Park Campground, a Corps of Engineers Recreation Area. It is in the town of Lakeview, about a mile east […]
