Still in Tennessee
Here is the following of my Tennesse trip., with a poor light because of the not very pleasant weather.
I went to Kentucky to visit a natural Bridge, just North of the Big South Fork area.
1) Natural Bridge
2) Temp was about 16°, difficult to show without these icy formations!
3) Natural hanging gardens…
4) Along the road, I sometime see nice traces of the past…
5) Small house rebuilt as it was in 1850…
The next night, Vivalavida was entitled to his snow baptism. I woke up Under the rain by 29° and went to discover Northrup Falls, probably one of the falls that are my favorite so far.
6) Freezing rain…
7) Pine forest Under the rain…
The fall jumps a high oberhanging cliff about 200 yards long. Athmosphere was really wild, with rain and fog, and a deafening noise, reinforced by the echo of the cliff as I approached the falls.
8) The overhanging cliff…
9) Discover of these amaising falls
10) Details…
11) Northrup Falls
The rain still heavy, I went to visit the Bunkum Cave, not very far away.
12) Nice last fall colors in this wet forest
13) Entry of the cave, with the surprise to discover that a small river is coming out of it…
14) Exploring the cave is forbidden to protect endemic bats from a parasite killing them. So I couldn’t venture beyond daylight…
15) Holly…
There are still some pictures of my discovery of the North Tennessee to come soon…
Great week to all! 😀
