Ricketts Glen in MARCH! | Let's Chase Some Waterfalls!

Ricketts Glen is renowned for its 24 named waterfalls along Kitchen Creek. These cascades flow through steep, narrow valleys, creating a mesmerizing spectacle. The highest of these falls is the 94-foot Ganoga Falls.

Darcy, this is the first video of yours I've watched. I love water and waterfalls. You did a beautiful job of capturing the sights and sounds of the falls and flowing water, and laid over music that complemented the scenery, and didn't overpower it - well done. You have a good artistic eye for capturing angles of your subject including yourself. My favourite scene was the one where you walked into it, stopped, and were lit up by the sun, as you watched the flowing water. Well done Darcy!

I’ve only been to Rickets Glen once and would love to go back one day. It’s a great time of year for waterfalls. Thanks for the great footage!

[@darcyshikingdiaries]

It's best to check it out before June/July/August, the trail gets so busy and packed with families and people in general, it can make for a really long day as a lot of the Falls trail is very narrow and steep. I'm grateful for living so close to the park and visit when it's not busy.

Very nice. Really enjoyed the first song. Beautiful. Thanks for sharing and keep on adventuring. 👍🙂🙏

[@darcyshikingdiaries]

Thank you Dave! It was a B-E-A-U-tiful day to walk among the falls!

[@backpackingadventures4813]

Really great footage! It’s been a long time since I’ve been to Rockets Glenn to see the falls. The camping area around the lake is awesome as well! Great video!

[@darcyshikingdiaries]

Thank you Dan! I wasn't sure what to expect, but the weather was right and it really was a beautiful little hike among the water and falls!

[@WALTERZOLNA]

Beautiful shots Darcy, I love the small trickles of water coming down the mossy rocks of the glen just as much as the major waterfalls!

[@darcyshikingdiaries]

The water falling off the mossy rocks are my favorite thing to catch! So pretty!

[@MaksimOutdoors]

Wow Darcy didn't know we were getting a video for the scouting mission as well! Great footage and even better you had the entire trail to yourself. With it being in the 70s the next few days I am feeling pretty optimistic about the entire trail being open, hopefully the trail is as empty as it was for you! Thanks for checking it out!

[@HikerDudeDad]

I talked to someone there yesterday. The head ranger is away until Thursday. Hopefully he'll return and open the trail!

[@HikerDudeDad]

Fantastic video! It's awesome watching your filming evolve... Love the opening shot with you fading into the falls, so artistic!

[@darcyshikingdiaries]

Thank you Ryan! I think I have a unique style of creating hiking videos that are worth watching. I get so much inspiration from all you OG KZbin Hiking/Backpacking creators that inspires me to do better.

[@pbradden]

Lovely. Thanks for sharing.

[@runningintohistory]

Great work capturing this area!

[@darcyshikingdiaries]

Thank you for watching! I can’t wait to go back and do the whole trail!

[@mach318]

[@journeywithjay]

Awesome video very relaxing!!! I'm new to your channel and subscribed. Definitely gonna be checking out some of your other videos as well. Soo excited for the nice weather to finally be here

[@darcyshikingdiaries]

Thanx for watching and welcome to my channel! I have some other videos of Rickets Glenn as well.

[@hikingoutdoorfamily]

Super beautiful. You had a great day for your visit. How were the trail conditions?

[@darcyshikingdiaries]

They were great! I have gone in worse trail conditions in spring so today was amazing!

[@hikingoutdoorfamily]

@@darcyshikingdiaries That's awesome. I have a feeling they will post that the whole trail is open again soon if conditions stay warm.

[@angelicamartinez6879]

Planning to go tomoro do I have to have those things u mentioned with me before going to see falls?

[@darcyshikingdiaries]

@@angelicamartinez6879 I heard there was people who got fined for not having the gear but I don’t think they are needed, I certainly didn’t need them. It’s up to you if you are willing to take the chance. I know people are hiking it without all that gear.

[@angelicamartinez6879]

Did u purchase your tickets online??

[@angelicamartinez6879]

Is it open for public??
