Driving from our Cabin, I drove across a bridge with a River Flowing Fast…. I found a place to turn around and went back.
I drove up the road and found a Ranger Station. Found out the road and Trail to the Ramsey Falls was washed out in several Places.

I heard some water rushing near the Ranger Station and decided to get some photographs.
I was just a little too deep and some Very Cold water poured in to my boot. Oh well I just poured it out and finished capturing my pictures.

Walking a little farther up maybe 50 yards. I came across this amazing view.
That is beckoning me to follow the creek and see what is around the bend.
Of course I ventured out in to the water, for better photos. That is what I do …

The rough looking water shows power and strength of the river combined with the chiseled boulder makes a Dramatic picture.
Yet peaceful with the autumn colors and the evening coming makes it peaceful.
Perfectly ending a day of hiking with a nice warm fire and remembering the memories of the day.

Decided to wait a little longer and catch the Sunset changing the trees to a golden color and the clouds turning a purplish.
A perfect way to end the day…. Watching Mother Nature turning off the lights of another day.
