Saltpetre Cave State Nature Preserve in Hocking Hills, Ohio
Saltpetre Cave State Nature Preserve in Hocking Hills, Ohio
An absolutely gorgeous sight! A frozen in time water cascade on the trail at Old Man's Cave. This multi-tiered natural masterpiece had to be 25ft tall and stretch over 100ft wide. The lowest tier is tall enough that you can walk behind it.
The lower falls at Old Man's Cave.

If you want to see the falls at their peak, head there in late winter/early spring just as the snow melts and preferably after a heavy rain fall. Also if your schedule permits, head there on a weekday morning and you just might have the place to yourself for a bit. 

Old Man's Cave derives its name from the hermit Richard Rowe who lived in the large recess cave of the gorge. Rowe lived out his life in the area and is buried beneath the ledge of the main recess cave.
