Dog Slaughter Falls, getting there made us feel like we were back in Costa Rica, there was a lot of potholes in the dirt road. It was a beautiful four mile hike, we talked to others and they started from Cumberland Falls, making it an eight mile hike for them.

Looking out from behind the Falls. There was a few places (rocks) to sit to take a break and enjoy the day.

Cumberland Falls, also know as Little Niagra. All paths paved and overlooks fenced off, nice park to walk around.

Double rainbow at Cumberland, this is the same spot where you can see the Moonbow. It is the heavy mist from the falls that creates the rainbows and moonbows with the right wind and light.

Information about the Moonbow that we got to see.

Moonbow using a flash, to the naked eye it is a white arch, pretty amazing.

Yahoo Falls, tallest waterfall at 113′ in Kentucky, you can see the second set of steps on the right hand side (and John) people talk about wading around in the pool, we passed as it was only in the 50’s.

Yahoo Falls natural arch, just a little more than over a mile and half from the Falls. it was unique to see the trees growing on top of it.

We could hear waterfalls so we went to explore, it sounded a lot more impressive than it turned out to be. In doing so we ended up crossing over to another trail extending our hike to over 5 miles. The good part in doing this we didn’t have to use the first stair case going down, the really bad part, we had to take the 157 steps to get back up.
