Falls in the fall

This week we went out to do some trekking and ended up sightseeing instead. It was a last minute plan that took us to the Delaware Water Gap (DWG) where we saw some wonderful fall colors on the way and also some beautiful waterfalls. 

We started out on Saturday noon, drove to Stroudsburg towards the Water Gap (the geographical feature) and saw many trekking trails near it. We decided against trekking as it was soon to be dusk and drew north towards Milford, which is the other end of the reserve.

We may not have tried the full trek that the DWG that it had to offer, which is the McDade trail that is a good one day trek. However, we ended up driving all the way to the north of the Water Gap that is Milford and from there went to Child's park waterfalls, walked down to Dingmans falls. On the way back we stopped again at Bushkill falls that is a private park outside the Water Gap Reservation Area.

All this is just a couple of hours from New York to drive to (the drive itself is an exhilarating experience) all the places above.
