| Upper Falls - Letchworth State Park |
New York,
How were you hiding all these big and showy state parks? I have lived in the Northeast most of my life (minus those two years in Utah) and as you know dear reader, I am madly in love with the outdoors. Whether it's scuba diving or horseback riding, hiking or mountain biking, or just an evening under the stars. I'm happiest when I 'm outside.
In my 31 years I have traveled a lot, especially around the U.S. And when I moved back east from Utah, I made it my mission to tackle more mountains, more peaks, and spend more time outside. To experience the outdoors in new places and in new ways.
But even after being back east for 2.5 years and tackling different challenges, these New York State Parks are still a complete surprise. It's amazing what is hiding just a few state lines away). These parks in the Finger Lakes were gems no one down here in New England really talked about.
This wasn't just a casual run of the mill State Park. To me, this was dramatic and oh so beautiful with rugged cliffs and waterfalls, miles of trails and so many recreation opportunities. I couldn't help but think, this place is kind of National Park worthy.
