Spent Thanksgiving in NE Ohio (my first visit back home in 20+ years). Visited Blue Hen Falls on Friday, it was only 20 minutes from where we were staying. Very pretty falls, I look forward to making more trips to the area. (My brother in law now lives only a couple miles from where I grew up, so I now actually have a reason to visit the area again.)

Great shots Mike! And a nice set of falls :up:

Great shots! Were you able to stop at Brandywine Falls too?

Thanks for the comments. I wasn't able to make it to Brandywine Falls, but I do plan on making future visits, especially next Fall. Brandywine is definitely on the list.

It's kind of funny, I grew up in the area, and even used to ski at Boston Mills ski area, which is just down the road from Blue Hen Falls, but I never even knew it was there.

Great shots! Looks like there was a fair amount of flow at the ol' Hen... I'd be curious as to what Buttermilk and Brandywine look like now. Buttermilk especially -- I've only seen it in person with low flow conditions, but I have seen pics when it's been in high flow. I will be in that area sometime before the end of January, and I do plan on getting down there to get some photos.

I love these! I go to Cleveland quite a bit and have been meaning to hit Blue Hen. I have stopped at Brandywine quite a few times.
