Leo Trail 2

Ohio History
Up the Gorge
Heading back up the steep ravine, the trail did not improve much. But the rock sculptures, like the “pancakes” above, were still magnificent. One rocky shelf extended so far over the trail that we could stand in the deep cavern. It was hard to believe we weren’t at Old Man’s Cave, except that there was absolutely no one else around!!
Marble Rock
Isn’t it amazing to think a rock could hold such a spectacular mix of colors? We got a good look at it while we were underneath that rock shelf I mentioned. There were also rocks embedded with pebbles and flint, and some had a honeycomb pattern eroded from their surface. Really, it is a shame more people don’t know about this awesome gorge!
