Collier Falls

Files under Photo schtuff | Posted by THE J-Mo

Here’s a shot I took at the top of Collier falls Saturday. I was only a few feet away from the edge of the dropoff into the fall’s basin below so I had to be extremely cautious where I was stepping to avoid any mishaps. I would have liked to have gotten a shot from below, but from where I was, I couldn’t see a good way down that wouldn’t have taken all morning. Next time, one of the things I plan on bringing is some rope. Might not be a bad idea to bring along a climbing harness too to better get in and out of spots (with help from others of course). Anyway, there were two old brick columns standing in the water just below the falls. I’m guessing they used to be part of a mill before? Or maybe a bridge? I’m not certain. I don’t know if they appear in any of my shots but I’ll look around.

    So I have to say… all the gorgeous waterfall shots are ruining my preconceived notion that Alabama’s flat without a lot of stuff to see. Wow.

    TC: thanks! There are some really scenic spots around here. You just have to know where to look!

    Arlene: thanks dear! It was a trek to get to but in the end it was worth it although at the time I wasn’t so sure.
