These are some pics taken when Kripa, Maria and I hiked to Moonshine Falls (in Caesar’s Head State Park). It’s a nice, moderate hike through some pretty forests. There are plenty of unofficial campsites along the trail as well. Although the hike is moderate, there is one place where you have to cross a small river on a cable (see pics). However, the river can probably be crossed without using the cable if you don’t mind getting your feet a little damp.
Moonshine Falls is not very spectacular, but there is an overhang behind the falls, and a pool that’s 3-4 feet deep at the bottom. It’s not a place to go if you’re looking to get a great view (I’d recommend Raven Cliff Falls for that), but it would be a nice place to take the kids to play and give them a sense of adventure. There are still some barrels and things left over from when people used to make moonshine there.
