Date Night: Bridal Veil Falls

So, a couple of weeks ago Neil and I went to Bridal Veil Falls for our date night. I'd actually never hiked these falls and thought it might be a lot of fun even though on that particular night I was kind of feeling sick. Well, as you can see from the pictures, a short, brisk hike can do wonders for a person. 

Enjoy!

Trail head.

We had some fun on our way up.

Are we going the right way? (The Falls aren't hard to get to.)

We made it a few minutes later!!

 

Neil was taking in the beauty of the Falls when I snapped these. I started giggling before he turned and asked if I was "sneaking". Um, duh.

(Sneaking? Sneaking? Fat Hobbit is always so polite. Smeagol shows them secret ways that nobody else could find, and they say "sneak!" Sneak?)

 

Scary.

There are a few ledges once you get to the lower Falls and so I decided to be a little adventurous and climb up higher.

Then Neil followed me and went up even higher.

Kissing his buff arms. Oh dear.

So I decided I should go up there with him and stand next to the Falls. It was actually really slippery.

Look at that face! So sad.

When we climbed/slid back down to the base we saw this lovely sign:

Note: Hiking and Climbing beyond the point is STRICTLY PROHIBITED.

Oops. 

We had a lot of fun and are going back sometime to hike to the upper Falls! So excited!
