We visited Clifty Falls State Park over the weekend. We left after Zachary got off work and arrived in a light drizzle, set up our tent and had a few hours of nicer weather before we went to bed. During the night the rain really come down, and we discovered our tent was not waterproof. We ended up putting the pop-up canopy over the tent with a tarp, Hyrum joined me and Kyle put his new raincoat over his head for the drips and we made it through the night. The rain lasted until about 7:30am and then we had a beautiful day to explore the park.
The Fire Tower
The Fire Tower provided beautiful views of the park and the Ohio River.
The Nature Center
Hoffman Falls
This falls was very difficult to see from the lookout point, because of the trees and the amount of water falling. The last picture is the dropoff of the water, where it then fell 78ft.
Tunnel Falls
This was the tallest falls we saw at 83ft. It was beautiful and the kids were pleased it was just a short walk
Big and Little Clifty Falls
Little Clifty Falls is a 60ft drop, these are pictures from the trail and the lookout point.
Big Clifty Falls is also a 60ft drop. The difference between big and little clifty falls are the cascades that are part of Big Clifty Falls. Both were seen from the same trail which was a bit muddy, but considering the downpour that night before it was quite nice.
