A Little Sun

All the rain we had made Hell's Hollow Falls all the more dramatic. McConnells Mill State Park.

A Look Upstream

It was finally warm enough for my middle daughter and I to hike along Hell's Hollow Trail on Saturday. She was preoccupied collecting walking sticks on the trip back to the car. So fun.

Melting

My middle daughter and I finally managed to hike down to Hell's Hollow Falls today. It is finally starting to warm up enough that some of the snow is melting.

Hell's Muddy Waters

After an onslaught of rain, Hell's Run swelled with a surge of muddy water. Normally this spot is more rock than stream. This photo was taken from the second bridge along Hell's Hollow Trail in McConnells Mill.

Remembering a Summer Walk

Right now everyone is fighting colds but at least the kids are recovering.

Pool of Water

When I took this photo, my middle daughter was trying to smack Water Striders or as she calls them, 'Skitter Bugs', with her walking stick in a nearby pool of water. She was not successful as they always scurried away. I don't think she minded.

Reflection

This was taken along Hell's Run on a side path from Hell's Hollow Trail.

According to the DCNR website, in dry periods this section of the stream will run in a small underground cave.
