Bellsmith Springs & Burden Falls, Southern Illinois

Sorry for the hiatus folks but I refuse to hike during spring allergies and the nasty heat we get in the summer. So fall and winter are upon us and the time is right for hiking! This holiday weekend I went to Hematite Lake (Western Kentucky), Burden Falls (Southern Illinois), and Bellsmith Springs (Southern Illinois). The weather was chilly but that didn't stop my camera and I from getting out.
