I love this quiet little spot on the trail today. Not only a double waterfall, a peaceful little pond (with baby trout swimming around) and also—when the light hits just right—ripples reflect the sun on the stone above in hypnotic patterns.

I sit here for a long while. #Hiking #NewYork

My favorite spot on the trail today, this hypnotic #waterfall pond. The light reflecting ripples on the rock wall above—so pretty. I’ll post another video of it from a different angle.

Sat for lunch at one of my favorite spots on the back woods trail. #Waterfall and nice flat rock to sit on. The sound is so healing. #Hiking #NewYork

I sat and watched these baby trout(?) for awhile in the pond today.

This might be their birthing pond—the rains will come soon and they’ll be racing downhill toward the larger Ramapo River and Passaic. #Hiking #NewYork
