For this blog category, “Countdown to Christmas: Our Travel Tree & Georgia State Parks,” each day between December 1 and 25, I take a pic of a state park ornament on our Travel Tree and briefly highlight that park.
Yesterday, I wrote about Fort Mountain State Park. Cloudland Canyon is just a short drive away, so we took a day trip over. This state park, just south of Chattanooga, Tennessee and on the western edge of Lookout Mountain, boasts stunning views of craggy hills and waterfalls along three beautiful trails.
Two features are especially memorable at Cloudland Canyon: waterfalls and lots of steps.
Sometimes there’s a price for beauty. Imminent danger awaited me at every turn …
For some reason (the high altitude?), Robert wanted perfect strangers to take his picture at this state park.
“Robert, look at all the steps up this way! Come on up, slow poke!”
Robert’s response …
Thank you, State of Georgia, for establishing and preserving our Sensational State Parks!
