Growing up in basically the middle of nowhere, you have to get creative in order to find new things to see and do. This means you have to be willing to drive, but 9 times out of 10 the drive is always worth it. Hiking is one of my favorite things to do, and I've decided to compile a list of the best waterfall hikes in my area.
