I read a little further. "Park in the power line easement." "Take a small dirt road to the east." "Turnoff to parking can be rough." Descriptions not written to warm an RV driver's heart. Well, there's still nine waterfalls to see.
Reading on, I find "Follow some treacherous terrain along a high cliff." "Rocky and hilly terrain make good walking shoes a must." Surely insurance would cover the ER trip, but why risk it? Well, there's still four waterwalls to see. Let's see which ones.
"Carney Rapids is not a waterfall but an area of rushing water just to the west of the bridge." No need to drive cross country for that. Well, there's still three waterfalls to see, and they are all on the same road.
"Some improvements have been made, but the road remains generally winding with speed limits ranging from 25 to 45 mph." Well, we don't drive that fast anyway. And it is the longest Rustic Road in the state. That's an extra bonus.
Uh oh, the road is a washboard. Well, just the first 17 miles are. Won't take long at 15 mph. Those jiggling dishes in the cabinet are plastic and they'll be just fine.
Look, here's waterfall number one. Wow, should have put on bug spray. Well, I've heard about these northern mosquitoes, and finally, I get to see some. Yep, they sure are big. Guess they could not read the NO PEST sign. I read it and left Daisy in the RV.

Sometimes it is the destination, sometimes it is the journey.
