Forest Waterfall Icy Ravine

During a winter snow storm we hiked down into the New River Gorge. All along the mountains sides just above the New River are creeks and runs that pour down these mountain sides. One of these creeks is Keenys Creek. This is one of the most scenic and unknown areas of the New River, and the waterfalls along this creek are astounding. This particular waterfall cannot even be seen from the ridge top above but you must climb down into the ravine. This is one of our favorites.

Scenic Winter Waterfall Scene

Standing on the side of this steep hill taking a picture of this roaring waterfall during a winter snow storm in late January. My son and I cleared trees and made our way through to this area during a snow storm so we could see these beautiful waterfalls during the winter snow storm. This is one of the largest waterfalls on this creek which pours into the New River Gorge.

Winter Waterfall Ravine

Waterfall deep in a ravine which pours into the New River Gorge in West Virginia. This creek has actually been used for extreme kayaking. It would certainly take a daring and adventurous heart to Kayak down this rugged creek considering the jagged rock edges and steep drops over the waterfalls.

Forest Waterfall Winter Snow Scene

Beautiful Waterfall deep in a ravine in West Virginia during a Winter Snow storm. We descended about 100 feet down to the rushing waters of Keeny’s creek. This is just above the New River Gorge. I am standing on a big snow covered rock trying to keep my balance while the snow is pouring down and the cold winter wind is blowing. My companion is over on the hillside, he is much more help than he realizes, just being here as my buddy.

Winter Waterfall Snow Rocks

Scenic winter waterfall with snow covered rocks. Deep in the New River Gorge during a winter snow storm. We climbed down into this ravine to get to this waterfall. Although you can see the creek from the road you cannot see this waterfall. the only way you can see this is to actually climb down here.

A beautiful winter waterfall scene during a snow storm deep in the New River Gorge area of West Virginia. Notice how long this waterfall is, it must be 100 feet from top to bottom. Many cascades start above the main waterfall before it plunges into the pool below.
