Cumberland Falls was visited first for contrast: an impressive 60-foot plunge. Yahoo Falls, about 20 miles southwest, has a sub-fraction of the water volume falling over, but you can crane over the fall's lip and peer 110-feet to certain death.

I noticed what I judged as evidence of rappelling...a gutsy endeavor. The arches here are more gentle and delicate form than those found in the Red River Gorge. They hang like fragile, elderly limbs and, in some cases, slightly rotting. There is much exposed rock with many opportunities for secluded exploration. A dubious historic cemetery (headstones with various rock slabs and debris decorating the ground above the casket) is located near the Cotton Patch Shelter. Think Blair Witch. The Sheltowee Trace intersects with Negro Creek Trail and a nice camp site is found there.
