Most of the trail was very nice, lined with Laurel, wide and clean.

Playing with the exposure.

In multiple places the trail follows narrow manmade "valleys"

The river flows through a narrow gorge above the falls. It can be heard here but not easily seen.
|
Mountains in the distance looking across the river, just up from the falls.
|
Laurel Falls, at a time when there is a decent water flow.
