View from above the waterfall.

As I mentioned in this video footage post, on Saturday my girlfriend and I had a nice visit to Mount Nebo State Park (near Russellville, Arkansas). It was a chilly day in the 30′s, and but the icicle-covered waterfall was very pretty.

Here are some of the photos I took. (Click for larger view.)

Mount Nebo Waterfall

I had a cool visit to Mt. Nebo State Park with my son and his girlfriend a few weeks ago. I posted here the cell phone video I took of the waterfall. (When flowing, it is located on the Gum Springs Trail, just a little bit below the rim level at the mountain’s south end.)

Here are some photos I took of the waterfall.
