Cuyahoga Falls

These photos are from my archives and one of our past trips to Ohio. We stopped at the Cuyahoga National Park to see the Brandywine Waterfalls. Cuyahoga National Park is south of Cleveland. The winding Cuyahoga River was given  the name crooked river by the American Indians. The park also has a nice Bike trail next to the working rails and the canal.









































A view at the top of the falls, looks just like a trickle of water.






My hubby is fascinated with waterfalls, if we are traveling and a waterfall is in the area we make a point of stopping to see it.

This is my Watery Wednesday post and Outdoor Wednesday to see more click on my links. Thanks to  2sweetnsaxy and Susan  for hosting and thanks for stopping by to visit my watery post.

  2. Waterfalls are amazing phenomena. Here in Cape Breton, there are many, if you are willing to do a little hiking! They are to die for! ~karen

  4. I have a great deal in common with your husband -- we try to see as many as we can. I always say we collect waterfalls. And they make a good collection for RV folks!

    Yours is beautiful. We're on the road again now and hope to add some new ones to our collection.

  6. It is odd that that little trickle of water on the top of the falls can turn into such a wonderful waterfall!
    I love the beach in your header, too!!

  7. Lovely waterfall. I like waterfalls, also. Watching a waterfall is similar for me to watching a campfire-mesmerizing!

  9. Nice waterfall! I'll have to look up Cuyahoga National Park. We live 3 hours from Cleveland, so the park shouldn't be too far of a drive. I would like to return to Cleveland one day and go to the zoo; might add a stop at the park to the trip.
