Ricketts Glen State Park lies mostly in Luzerne County
and is about 30 miles west of Wilkes Barre. Two branches
of Kitchen Creek traverse this park, descending
approximately 2,500 feet through a series of 22 named
waterfalls, the tallest of which is 94 feet. Hiking
trails alongside the creek allow access to most views
worth capturing on film.
Because of the some steep drops, the time of year, and
drought conditions, the water flows of Kitchen Creek
offer not only waterfall images, but also interesting
water patterns.
