| Delaware Water Gap Winter Visit |
The January and early February of 2007 had been cold and long. On Feb.17th the temperature finally was going to
climb up to upper thirties, I just got to go to see the icy waterfall in Delaware Water Gap. The entrance to Dingman
Falls was blocked off. However the Factory Falls and Fulmer Falls is still accessible. Going down from the parking lot
to Dingmans Creek, I was struck by the peace and quiet brought about by the blanket of snow. The creek was
flowing around the sparkling ice banks. Its sound seemed to be softer but crispier. There were many surprises to be
shared with you.

There were big
boulders near the
downstream of Fulmer
Falls. But their fissures
are very different,
indicating their different
origin.
This one has

Tuliptree.(Yellow Poplar). The stalks of
fruit persist in winter like a tulip. Hence
the name. The trunk can be hollowed
out to make a canoe, also for
instruments and many other uses.
