Looking north at Council Rock where the black hand petroglyph used to be that gave the sandstone and the Gorge its name. |
Just sharing some more Black Hand Gorge photos. This really is among the most beautiful places in Ohio, and I'm glad it's so near my home I can visit anytime. Fall is the best time to visit though.

A rockful reminder that a railroad line used to run through here. |

The eastern entrance to the old railroad "deep cut" is near the quarry and Council Rock. |

It's what's not here that's great to see. The fences that used to line this path and mar the natural beauty are gone. |
