 Down Stream *441 viewsMaybe a ten foot falls but, water was high and it was an easy photo shot, right beside the road to Thurmon, WV.

 WV Pride336 viewsCathedral Falls may be West virginia's tallest falls. Hill Creek Falls also claims that distinction but, depends on where one aims the laser, I suppose.

It surely is the most visited, being right beside US 60.Mar 20, 2019 at 10:56 PM

 Hard To Miss320 viewsCan you see th person in this photo? So many visitors were present that one can only Lightroom out so many.

Hills Creek Falls may be taller but, it can not possibly be more crowded with folks. I will be visiting Hills Creek with my handy dandy laser in the near future.
