My friend Jessica was in town this past week, and because Houston isn’t exactly known for splendid mountain views, lush forests, and gushing waterfalls, we decided to go for a ramble for all three of those things.
Franklin Falls is one of the easiest hikes I’ve done, and because it’s pretty tame and short, it’s also quite popular. Luckily, we were able to go on a weekday because I took the day off work, which meant the trail was far less crowded than I imagine it’d be during the weekend.
