4/26/18. View of the Cumberland River from the Lodge.
One of my favorite views of the Cumberland River, but looking very different this year. Seems things are in a much earlier stage,
Cumberland Falls after a rain.
I have never seen this mini-falls above the main falls before.
This section above the falls usually has very dry and interesting rocks.
