Flume Gorge, Franconia SP

So, this is one of those places where you wonder how many pictures can you actually take and how many can you bear to post?

The Flume Gorge is a gap in the rocks created by a glacier 25000 years ago. The water rushes, trickles, runs, pools, and slides down the mountian through the gorge. The water is crystal clear. There are hundreds of great photo locations. Then there is the fall foliage.

This was a nice easy hike up a piece of the gorge and back down, about 3.5 miles round trip. The park service built walkways to make it possible for just about anyone to do the hike.

There is something different about a flume vs a waterfall. The flume has a lot of character and is drawn out over a larger area.

Here are about 20 pictures from our hike. I'm sure we have 300 more. All beautiful.Read more
