It rained on Wednesday so yesterday we decided to check out the waterfall again at Ferne Cliff. This time we knew a little of what we were doing so we parked in the right parking log and went down the big rocky hollow trail that we finished up on previously. It's a nice easy trail that is rocked the whole way. The creek seemed to be running a little more but not as much as I expected. There were several people taking advantage of nice February day, it was nice enough we wore shorts. When we got to the falls it was running over a little more but not as much as I expected. On the way back we saw another small waterfall that wasn't running the last time we were there. We got done with the first trail and decided to check out Hawk's cave trail. This trail is a loop and we decided to go right mainly because it went up and I wanted to finish going down. We went up a rock paved trail that had several steps that were kept in place with railroad ties. It took awhile but we finally reached the cave. There was a smaller cave but we went a little further and there was a big cave that had several large rocks or boulders in it. So far so good but after we left the cave the trail got a little tough and you had to go from rock to rock to get to the rest of the trail, luckily the rocks weren't slick. After that we got back to the rocked path that finished by going up and down. In retrospect going left at the start was probably easier. When we got that we both had some left in us so we went down the Rebman trail. It's a nice flat trail with a rock creek to one side. When we got to the end we were surprised, there was another really nice waterfall. It wasn't as high as the other but you could see it coming down the side of the hill until it reached the drop off. Once we left there we went on the opposite side of the creek and started down what looked like a trail. I think it was for people who want to climb the cliff. We got to where there trail went back across the creek and headed back. That was enough for me in one day but as we say "it was a great day tater".
