One of the many natural bridges in the Red River Gorge Geological Area.

I'm resting at a nifty little perch I found. A very scenic stream is about 70 feet straight down. Unfortunately during most of the hike, the jungle of Rhododendrons and other foliage allowed only intermittent, seductive views of the gorgeous streams below. Thankfully though, I was almost always able to hear the relaxing sounds of the water.

I camped at the confluence of two streams. This is the view up the larger one.

In every direction from my camp were giant boulders with trees and Rhododendron bushes grown on them, which is typical of Red River Gorge.

My tent is barely visible beyond the two huge boulders.
