    Tumbling Waters - PEEC
    A wonderful intro to the Poconos. Beautiful woodlands and a steep descent to (and later ascent from) an impressive waterfall. It was hazy but there are some impressive views once you climb back up from the falls. The trail was very well marked.

    Nice short walk along the creek. Nothing all that special just nice.
