Here it is Fun Fall Friday again and I'm totally unprepared. Of course, most of the week was tied up with our post Savageman high. And, I have to say that the athletes that compete in Savageman deserve a big applause! What a tough course. And, everyone involved, including our Railey Killer Miller group really worked hard to pull off another successful event. Here's our very own Russell Bounds at the top of Miller Hill and as you can see, he has no clue a photographer is even in his face, he's just concentrating on making it to the aid station:
Now on to what today is all about - Fun Fall Fridays. One thing that I love to do, but admittedly don't do enough of is hiking at the State Parks. I've visited Swallow Falls State Park twice this year and realized that as a local, I don't enjoy what this area has to offer nearly enough. According to the DNR website, Garrett County hosts 10 State Parks offering everything from hiking trails, cross country ski trails, and camping while some offer unique opportunities like rapid whitewater areas for kayaking or snowmobile and off road vehicle trails. There is a whole host of opportunities for the outdoor enthusiast right in our backyard! Why not plan a trip to one of the State Parks today and enjoy all that rugged Garrett County has to offer?

*As you can probably tell, this happens to be my favorite spot in all of Garrett County, Tolliver Falls. Located in Swallow Falls State Park a bit off the beaten path lies this peaceful little waterfall and it happens to be a subject of lots of pictures by me. I can't wait until snow flies to go over and get a snow covered falls!
