Ricketts Glen State Park in Pennsylvania. 7.5 mile hike that

goes along 21 waterfalls. A friend of mine took beautiful pictures there. You can see his photos at dayphotos.

This is more for a weekend trip, but check out Cathedral Falls near Gauley Bridge, WV. The falls are 60+ feet high and you can stand in the water at the foot of the falls. There are some broader and lower falls close by called Kanawha Falls. At Kanawha Falls, there is a picnic area overlooking the river.

This entire area is known for its white water rafting as it is very near the New River Gorge. A couple of state parks and a jet boat ride to the base of the New River Gorge Bridge (cross through class 1 rapids on the way to and from the bridge - you will get wet!) are also close by.

The New River Gorge Bridge is the 2nd longest (or highest, I forget) single span bridge in the Western Hemisphere and you can pile 2 Washington Monuments and the Statue of Liberty under it and still not hit the bridge!!!

Here is a web site for the Cathedral Falls. I have been there when it is illuminated and it is quite a site.

If you are into gambling, Charleston, WV has a casino and it is 45 minutes from the Cathedral Falls. Plenty of camping in the area and some hotels are also there.

There was a picture of it here:

Found this online. Nothing close to SOMD, but some neat links/pics.

But it doesn't look like much. http://waterfalls.nature.st/Maryland/baden.jpg

Cascade Falls (from the same site) looks nice: http://waterfalls.nature.st/Maryland/cascade.jpg and it's only about an hour and a half away.

Wow, it looks beautiful there. Someday, I'll get there. I need to check out some of these falls around here. Nothing prettier than waterfalls and sunsets.

I used to live 30 minutes from Niagara Falls. Now that's a LONG trip but a must do - the Canadian side is a lot nicer.
