Georgianna (Falls) On My Mind 3/1/10

On this morning we awoke to 4” of fresh snow that had fallen overnight and decided it would be a good opportunity to check out Georgianna Falls; a small hike off the beaten path. The trail is located at the dead end of Hanson Farm Road across from the Longhorn Pancake House.


The trail is wide, well marked and had an unusual little cairn along the side of the path.


Broken branches littered the trail.


Further along was this perfectly split rock.


As we approached the falls there were unusual ice formations hanging off the rocks.


There are several cascades along the way.


Until you reach the upper frozen falls


A short video of the falls in action:

You can continue further to Harvard Falls; however, the trail is poorly marked and we ourselves lost the trail.
This was a nice leisurely hike through some beautiful woods.

Nice reports!
You found some really interesting, out-of-the-way spots on this trip....

Georgianna Falls is a very nice hike all year around, but I think it's especially nice as a winter hike. You got some great snapshots!

RICK: Thanks. Now we'll have to wait until the fall.

JOHN: Maybe we'll see what the Falls look like in the fall for a different perspective. Many thanks.
