Picked this hike to drag my buddy over on this trip back to PA. Been to Jim Thorpe plenty of times in the past when I was living in PA and had no idea this treasure was just around the corner. The rails to trail path is very popular with the visitors to Jim Thorpe, but the loop up the falls and out to the view point was relatively sparse with hikers. Climbing up the falls trail was quite challenging. Wet, slippery, slimy, steep, rocky, difficult to follow at spots, and all round pretty awesome.
