Princess Falls Lick Creek Sheltowee Trace National Recreation Trail Daniel Boone National Forest McCreary County Kentucky Visiting a falls for the first time is always exciting and Princess Falls near the Sheltowee Trace Trail in the Kentucky section of The Big South Fork didn't disappoint. Although the flow was only on the left side of what would be a 40 ft. wide waterfall on a rainy day the scene was still gorgeous. Interestingly, I hadn't realized that I had years before rode past the falls while riding shotgun on what is probably the wildest 4X4 excursion I'd ever been on. The old road is closed to vehicles now and the 1 1/2 mile hike isn't bad at all but it was kind of cool walking along and saying to each other, "Wow! We did that?!"
Princess Falls Lick Creek Daniel Boone National Forest McCreary County Kentucky Back in December of 2012 myself and good friends Jason Haley and Chris Morris took a weekend trip to the Cumberland Falls/Lake area of Kentucky. One of our stops on our little trip was to Princess Falls in the Big South Fork National Recreation Area, a 12 or 13 ft tall 40 ft wide waterfall on Lick Creek. This was my first time to the falls, and I'll have to admit the 1.25 mile easy to moderate hike was more than worth it although I have to admit it took me a little while to really size up this falls and figure out how I was going to shoot it. This shot here is one of my favorites!
