Vista point
👍👍 Such a great hike- there are some steep parts and some easy parts of the trail. You climb up rocks using foot holes in some places. We reached the top and also found the Vortex. It's hidden around a corner pillar past the 'end of trail' sign. Fun hike with some amazing views. I used water as the air...

The Crack at Wet Beaver Creek
Hiking area
👍👍 Great place. After a 2.5 hour hike it was amazing to get into the fresh water.. totally worth it. Bring plenty of water. I ran out of water and had to drink from the running river lol. Also, don't bring your dogs. They get exhausted and hot. Don't be a douche.

👍👍 Not only the best Cajun food this side of the Mississippi but great, friendly people. I had the jerk chicken and it was amazing. Hubby had the smoked beef. Same . But the potato and cheese soup was absolutely memorable. I will definitely be coming back. Maybe I can remember to take more pictures...
