My Family Days @ Petit Jean Mountain

Natural Bridge on 7 Hollows hiking trail

1st part of video is Cedar Falls, the last portion is the grotto! The canyon and bluffs were created by Cedar Creek, which cascades into the canyon in an impressive 95 foot (21 m) waterfall. Above the falls, Cedar Creek has been dammed to create the 170 acre (69 ha) Lake Bailey.

Rockhouse Cave - an archaeological historical site. These bluff dwelling Native Americans used this bluff shelter as their home over 1000 years ago. Today, evidence of their existence can be seen in the form of pictographs located high on the back wall of the cave.

For MY "Family Day" Once a year in the fall, the entire family caravans to a local spot near home - Petite Jean Mountain State Park where we enjoy Mother Nature by hiking, cooling off in the creek & falls, climb in caves, picnic at the grotto... to step back in history, if only for a wee bit!
