More along Nine Mile Creek. There was a hatch of sulphur Mayflies last night when trout fishing. It's a really beautiful creek, with a couple of large waterfalls, many smaller ones.

I love the shot of the Mayflies! I think that they're such a beautiful, delicate insect. No wonder the trout were biting! :wink:

Yeah, but they don't bite, or even eat for that matter. They only live as adults long enough to reproduce. They really are a pretty little insect.

I was down here earlier today and shot some pictures. Using up my last vacation week from work. Nice overcast day too!
Larry & I parked the car at the fishing access north of the main falls and walked up to it. Only 0.33 miles one way!

If you want to hear the water flowing? I did a short stereo video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CusgT4XnI9Q
It's not the greatest, because I'm not to good using a tripod and video-taping LOL!
