Bring some comfortable hiking boots/sneakers if you want to walk the trail up to the top of the falls. The trees are peeking and the view should be great. Thanks for updating the list Chuck!;)

[viperjimmy]

Anyone who wants to meet us at 1st & Ten without going on the cruise, we should be there noonish.

I drove the route today and the colors are definitly peak, it's not getting any better than this. With all the rain we just had, the water is really coming down Kent Falls and the two dams feeding the covered bridge we'll drive through! When we leave 1st & Ten, we are going right by On Track Karting, its 5 miles and less than 5 minutes away. Anyone want to try and beat Chuck?? :smileys-car-driving 1st and ten is less than 10 minutes from I84 east and west. Highs in the 60*s Sunday. Don't forget to bring sneakers or hiking boots if you want to hike up to the falls.
