Catarata Llanos del Cortés

August 2, 2016 Ashley Barlow Comments 0 Comment

Llanos de Cortez is a hidden gem in the northwestern portion of Costa Rica in the Guanacaste region. This region is known for being dry and flat so finding waterfalls out in this area are a nice treat. Llanos de Cortez is a beautiful 12m high and 15m wide waterfall that you can hear as soon as you step foot into the parking lot. Accessing this waterfall is relatively easy compared to the other waterfalls I chased throughout Costa Rica. The parking…

Hawks Nest State Park

June 28, 2016 Ashley Barlow Comments 1 comment

Hawks Nest State Park is a park I stumbled upon while driving along Route 60. I am glad I made the stop because I discovered the most scenic panoramic views of the New River located around 750 feet (230m) down below. It could not have been a more beautiful day to visit Hawks Nest State Park out in West Virginia! This scenic view is located just within the park. Just a short walk away led to one of the most…

Cascade Falls

June 7, 2016 Ashley Barlow Comments 1 comment

Cascade Falls is located within the Jefferson National Forest with a stunning height of 66 feet (20.1m). There are two separate trails leading to the falls; the lower trail and the upper trail. Most people take the more scenic lower trail up to the falls while taking the upper less scenic trail back to the parking lot. At the start of the trail you will shortly arrive at a bridge. Crossing the bridge takes you towards the lower trail which…

June 6, 2016 Ashley Barlow Comments 0 Comment

One of the most magical waterfalls in all of Virginia! Falling Spring Falls is an astonishing 80 foot (24.4m) waterfall and one of the most photographed and visited spots in the Allegheny Highlands. The convenience and picturesque views make it one of my favorite waterfalls in the state of Virginia. It was February when I first visited and boy did I get soaked! The water was surprisingly warm and I couldn’t help, but to walk underneath the towering 80 foot…

Behind the Scenes

March 25, 2016 Ashley Barlow Comments 0 Comment

The question I’ve been asked one too many times and I’m you all are just dying to know. How on earth did I take this amazing picture? I created a little animated GIF as seen below to give you all a behind the scenes look. There you have it folks! And No, I do NOT have a professional photographer following me around everywhere I go. (Although, sometimes I do have friends come with me). I balanced my Go Pro Hero 4…
