High Gorge Falls - page 2 of 2 |
|
The below pothole is over 50 feet above the river, yet the river used to be at least as high as where the two RV Gypsies are now standing. Amazing. |
|
The two RV Gypsies approached another bridge, but first Karen Duquette stopped to rest by an interesting, funky tree with its roots growing over a boulder, and its branches reaching down over the fence as if they want to reach into the water far below. |
|
Below: Another view of the lower falls, and a zoomed-in photo of part of a tree trunk that stretched across the raging river. |

View from the side of the bridge facing away from the falls. |
|
Lee Duquette paused to just relax and contemplate the forces that made this spectacle. He really enjoyed his surroundings on such a beautiful day. There is nothing like the life of an RV Gypsy, traveling throughout the USA, with no worries in the world. |
|
Below: Porridge Potholes |
|
From the Porridge Potholes, Karen Duquette looked back at the bridge with the funky tree. |
|
The two RV Gypsies approached the first bridge again, but from the other side of the gorge. |
|
Karen Duquette wanted to get a look at the falls and bridge from a lookout point. Lee Duquette decided to take her photo, but then told her to stand on the other side, and he took a second photo. |
|
Karen Duquette stayed at the lookout point to photograph Lee Duquette on the bridge plus the stairs back down to the original level. |
|
Lee Duquette noticed roots of a tree that were flowing over the top of a big boulder - and he thought it looked like a monster. Karen Duquette thought it looked like an octopus. |
|
The two RV Gypsies decided to get a photo of both of them before leaving High Falls Gorge. Lee Duquette only got himself on the first try, but succeeded on the second try. |
