Another Ledge Generated Pool |
|
Just as we pass Rock Run, the stream turns
eastward and its gradient increases significantly.
From now until we reach Great Falls, we will be climbing
through the geologic strata that make the summit of Chestnut
Ridge. It is as if the stream was flowing down a
gigantic staircase. You will observe short flat
stretches followed by extremely steep cascades. If you
travel through this section, you will likely think
more of rock climbing than fishing or hiking. Be careful!
The Rocks are large and the pools below them are
unpredictable. Some are very deep and some are
nonexistent. |
