Tennessee has a good many State Parks. I am more likely to go to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park or the Big South Fork National Recreation Area than anywhere, but I’ve wanted to see Cummins Falls, the centerpiece of Cumins Falls State Park, for some time and a few months ago managed to get over there. I was not disappointed. This is HDR, two shots combined in Aurora HDR, my new favorite HDR program.
Explored 1-11-17; highest position #239.
SEA IMP IX Passed the vessel that I was traveling in, producing an impressive and powerful wake.

If you can zoom in, you may see a hand waving through the back window.
It wasn't until I was editing this image that I noticed this friendly gesture. Bonus shot !

About half of the 1 1/2 mile hike to Cummins Falls requires water shoes. On a hot summer day, the knee deep water is pretty refreshing and leads to a popular swimming hole at the base of the falls. This park is near Nashville, TN.
The two ladies you see standing in the waterfall were among several more celebrants hiking up to the base after my arrival. One of the ladies had hiked in "flip-flops," which is the usual case for many who come here. Actually, the river gorge is hiked by people of all ages including children... and they are all magnetically attracted to one significant thing...~ the immense swimming hole at the base of the waterfall. A park associate who had also hiked up to the base told me on peak summer days there may be as many as 150 people here swimming and picnicking. In order to hike the gorge, a hiking pass is required. That's how the park is able to track how many people are in the gorge....and if the gorge is already full, there may be as many as over 100 people standing in line to purchase a hiking pass to go swimming. These two ladies had driven down from the state of Wisconsin and had scheduled Cummins Falls in their travelling plans. On my way back out, as I was hiking along and talking with several others, eventually I found the first crossing of the river I had missed on my hike in. If I lived closer, I guarantee I would be hiking here at least every 6 weeks! After I arrived back to my Jeep, I would be on my way back to photograph and share with you the grand finale of my adventure... my return visit to Burgess Falls!

I have not been back to visit Cumins Falls for some time, but I did revisit my last shoot there and found this capture to be a good candidate for conversion to black and white. So that's what I did.
It's always great when there is a person standing in a waterfall to enliven the viewing perspective. Just look at the immense stature of this waterfall! Timothy arrived at the waterfall not long after I did. He and his wife had driven down from the state of Iowa and crossed over the Appalachian Mountains in Kentucky before arriving here in Tennessee. Timothy was in the area on business for a company meeting later in the afternoon and he decided to start his day with a swim here below the waterfall. Cummins Falls is the 8th largest waterfall in Tennessee and is a highly popular, nationally recognized destination, often ranked among the best swimming holes in the United States by publications such as Travel + Leisure and Condé Nast Traveler. Its popularity has surged in recent years, making it one of the most visited natural attractions in the region. Timothy asked if I could try to get a photo of him in the falls and I did my best considering, so here's to you brother!
After leaving Spring Creek Falls, I drove about 15 minutes to the Cummins Falls State Park and arrived at here at about 8:30 AM. You may remember seeing the photograph I made from the overlook here on May 9, and ever since, I had been determined to hike the Blackburn Fork River gorge to reach the base of the waterfall. Publications describe the uppermost drop to be 50-55 feet with the lower cascading terraces to be another 25 feet in height. Two-dimensional photographs are misleading. I actually think in total it must be near 90 to 95 feet in stature. To reach where I am at this position, the river gorge hike is about 2.85 miles out and back. When I arrived here, it was bright, bright, crazy bright!... as if Gabriel the Archangel was hovering overhead above the waterfall with a host of angels to welcome me!... I'll have a few more captures to share, but first, I'll share a video I made hiking along the river down in the gorge featuring the hike...

The waterfalls is in Jackson County. It has a Cookeville address, but Cookeville is actually in Putnam County.
With the local pub in the background, Genesee & Wyoming 1067mm gauge Alcos are shunting their train 3AE1 at Cummins, South Australia, on 26 March 2019.
The first three units are DL531 export model Alcos 905/873/850, 905 having been modified in later life with a chopped nose. The 4th and 5th units, 1203, 1204 are former Westrail EMD A class locos that GWA inherited in 2006.
Most of this fascinating 1067mm (3'6" gauge) system closed two months later when the remaining grain task is shifted to road transport.

Southern Indiana's repowered Alco S2M #103 shoves its short train into the CSX interchange at Jeffersonville. The SIND was a unique little shortline comprised almost entirely of former interurban trackage. They pretty much existed to switch one customer, the large Heidelberg cement plant in Speed, IN. Operations changed, and the Louisville & Indiana now serves the plant, making the SIND essentially redundant. The railroad has since shut down and its pair of Alcos are for sale, last I heard.
CM3303, CM3314 and CM3312 work 4261 empty grain train through Towrang bound for Goulburn.

Back in 2003 on the isolated 3'6' (1067mm) gauge network on South Australia's Eyre Peninsula, up to three grain trains per day operated to numerous country area silo locations.
On 3 September 2003, the large bunker complex (out of sight to the left) at Cummins north of Port Lincoln saw two trains on the same day. Australia Railroad Group Alco DL531s 873/850/865 have pulled forward from the bunker siding and now wait for DA6/869/851 to propel their train into the siding, so they can then run around and head south to Port Lincoln.
The locos carry Australia Southern Railroad logos, but by this time the Genesee & Wyoming subsidiary was know as Australian Railroad Group.

Cummins fringed tulips are best suited for hardiness zones three through eight. The blooms of this fringed beauty are approximately four inches in width, and the fringed flowers reach a maximum height of about eighteen inches.
Cummins Falls State Park is an idyllic, but rugged, 211-acre day-use park located nine miles north of Cookeville on the Blackburn Fork State Scenic River on the Eastern Highland Rim. Located in the Cordell Hull Watershed, the area has been a scenic spot and swimming hole for local residents of Jackson and Putnam counties for more than 100 years. Cummins Falls is Tennessee’s eighth largest waterfall in volume of water and is 75 feet high.
Located on the beautiful Blackburn Fork State Scenic River, this idyllic 211-acre site in Jackson County is home to Tennessee’s eighth largest waterfall at 75 feet high. Cummins Falls is formed on the Eastern Highland Rim and has been a favorite scenic spot and swimming hole for residents of Jackson and Putnam counties for more than 100 years. Cummins Falls also has been listed as one of the ten best swimming holes in the United States by Travel & Leisure and Conde Naste magazines.
Cummins Falls’ rich history includes a time when Indians used the area to track the numerous buffalo that wallowed in the river’s shallow areas. In the 1790s, Sergeant Blackburn, a veteran of the Revolutionary War and for whom the Blackburn Fork State Scenic River was named, was awarded the land in lieu of a pension. The land was acquired by John Cummins in 1825, and he used the land to build the first of two mills. Because of his growing clientele, a larger second mill was built in 1845. Local residents would visit the mills and the falls for both commerce and recreation.
The mill was washed away during the great flood of 1928, but cars and paved highways had already begun to make the trek to Cummins Falls more accessible. The land was not rebuilt, but stayed with the Cummins family for more than 180 years until efforts by the Tennessee Parks and Greenways Foundation to purchase the land through private and public donations for resale to the state of Tennessee.
