In late October, on Sunday the 30th, Austin and I woke up early and drove down to Hocking Hills. We arrived
Looking out from Old Man's Cave!around 9am, the drive was a breeze and we got a great parking spot. We started out at Old Man's Cave - last time we went on a Saturday there were so many people we couldn't enjoy it - and then hiked the trail that lead to Cedar Falls. We came across a few other early bird photographers as well, but aside from that it was very peaceful and low with traffic. After taking a break and admiringly Cedar Falls, we hiked back to our car, and ate our packed lunches! Then we drove to a few other attractions and hiked some more, realizing rain was on the way, we headed home.
