It was awesome to see and hear the rushing water:)
We were instructed by park services that this was not a good place to stand-for safety reasons. Therefore, we took the photos and hurried along:)
(Mind you, no one was in sight to help with the chain bit, but suddenly there he was!)
Faith was excited about the waterfall but quickly became frightened that she would fall over the edge! Therefore, Dalaina would not get up to see:(
However, they were both excited to get out and play in the snow...I even let Faith throw a snowball at the van-right at Gram's window!!! She thought that was the best thing in the world...her eyes really couldn't have gotten any bigger:)
Can you see how high the snow was? Crazy--and I drove higher up the mountain!
This is where I got a little freaked out! Before you cross over this bridge, there is a sign that warns you not to stop on the bridge--it was an avalanche area!!!! So, yeah, I was sure not to stop on the bridge--even though the scenery was breath taking:)
Again, the scenery was just amazing, the snow made it even better!
Oh, so we come upon another sign for a waterfall and pulled off. However, we couldn't locate it! So, my mom decides she is determined to find it! She climbed up this snow/ice pile to look over! I thought she was a gonner a few times because she slipped! She was excited once she made it up because she found the waterfall!!
There was an old stone bridge and the falls ran under and over the edge! It was quite loud!
The sights were worth the time and effort:)
We made it up about 6500feet and then the roads were snowed in. Most of the mountain is closed until May because of the snow. Maybe we'll make it back in the spring!
