The breeze from the constant motion of Pulpit Falls makes the ferns wave like mad and I thought of Bob Ross and how delighted he'd have been to paint them.
This little bit of cascades took some bushwacking to get to, but when I heard it (out of sight) I knew I had to try. I think it's Pauchaug brook. The camera was on a my beanbag which was on a fallen tree over the water. Not the last time I did it that day either.
Because of how much I had to switchback my way down into the gorge on Houghton Brook, I ended up a bit farther down from Fay Falls. I wish I had more time to explore since there is a lot like this down there.
oh these kind of scenes are irresistible to me. I wanted to hike further upstream, but had a date with another waterfall before it rained. Maybe another day! I think this is Pauchaug brook.
Houghton Brook decends into a mighty gorge that is hard going in and out, but the falls and the brook itself is worth the work. I couldn't spend a lot of time exploring, but I can see another trip in the future someday. It was surprising that the brook isn't tannic at all, unlike most brooks in southern NH.
Looking down into Pulpit falls. I'm not sure it works, but I liked the view of the rounded bowl shape the water carved in millennia past. Had the tripod right on the edge.
