A pretty impressive collaboration of nature and man

Watkins Glen State Park Gorge Trail.  Stone steps and bridges snake through a narrow gorge alongGlenCreekas it tumbles across waterfalls and cascades to create smooth walled pools and sharp cliffs.  Bright shafts of sunlight light splotches on the shady moss covered gorge walls.  The stonework for the walkways blends seamlessly with the layered slate and sandstone.  Arched bridges are ideally placed to provide perfect views of the various falls.  Kudos to the masons who have built and maintain it.

I am sure we were here when I was a kid but I can’t remember anything specific from that visit.  I very much enjoyed the walk today.
