Burgess Falls

Have to admit, I am not good at stopping to get pictures on these trips.  The sites I have planned to visit are from a 'Virtual Walk' I started in 2020 (almost done), from the Golden Gate Bridge to the Washington Monument.

Most of the sites selected by the creators of this walk are best seen from the trail. Unfortunately, for some of them there was no place to park at the side of the road to see the site. In other cases, the walk to the 'main event' was more that I could handle.  In fact, the base of Burgess is accessible by canoe or kayak.

Burgess Falls is a Tennessee State Park.  https://tnstateparks.com/parks/burgess-falls

Beginning in Raleigh, the following sites are on my map.  In some cases, they are just there to keep me on track.  Some I will stop and look, others spend the night.

Phase 2:  Alton, MO; Hercules Glades Wilderness; Monkey Island, OK; Kaw Lake, OK; Salt Plains Sta...
