Yahoo Falls

While visiting Debbie's family in Kentucky, we took a day trip to Yahoo Falls! This is the tallest falls in Kentucky! Isaac rode on his Daddy's back for a little while, but most of the time he wanted to walk. The trail was a little steep in some areas, so we had to hold his hand the entire time.

There's my Mom and Dad (Grandma and Pop Pop) walking under a really huge rock formation along the trail.
Jason and Isaac walked a little ahead. I was in the middle! Isaac loves hiking!
Yahoo Falls is behind us. It is not a roaring, gushing falls, but there was a good stream pouring over. You can see how tiny the people at the base of the falls are, to get an idea of how huge the cavern behind the falls is. It is amazing to look under this huge rock outcropping and see the water coming over the edge from way up high!
Here is a photo looking out across the cavern. Jason and Isaac are the tiny people on the far left of the photo. They were walking around under the falls and down to the other side of the cavern.
Now, you can see how tiny Jason and Isaac are at the base of the falls! It's a really huge area where you can walk around behind the falls, and it seems like the water is just falling out of the sky practically! We really enjoyed hiking around the falls and walking above it, and behind it!
Isaac likes to try to walk with Jason's hiking pole. Jason can collapse it to be more Isaac's size, and then Isaac tries to walk with it just like he has watched his Daddy walk with it! It's so cute! He's such a little hiker!
