In September 2015, I made a brief stop in Ricketts Glen State Park in Pennsylvania, and took a picture of Adams Falls, accessible from a small parking lot on PA-118. Earlier today, I finally made a return trip and hiked from that same parking lot about 1.5 miles to see several other waterfalls. Assuming that I have correctly matched the waterfalls which I saw to their names, this is Murray Reynolds Falls.
Continuing upstream and uphill, I came to Sheldon Reynolds Falls.
The next one was Harrison Wright Falls.
After this one, I came to a trail junction and turned right, continuing on to Wyandot Falls.
That last falls I saw was B Reynolds Falls. Why there are three falls which include "Reynolds" in their names, and why one has only the initial "B", I have no idea. Note the people toward the right, who are almost beneath the falls. Yours truly climbed up to the same place.
Here's a side view of B Reynolds Falls, from approximately where those people are in the pic immediately above.
After climbing the trail to the top of B Reynolds Falls, I saw these rapids.
I decided that this was enough for one day and retreated southward toward the Bigfootmobile, parked in the small lot on PA-118.
