Gillis Falls Recreation Area

Small wooded waterfall and rocky stream set in rolling Maryland forest — shoot cascades, textured boulders, and seasonal foliage. Best after spring rains or in fall for color; overcast days soften highlights for long exposures. Trail is short but uneven; parking at the recreation area, free access, arrive on weekdays or early morning to avoid locals. No permits for casual photography; watch for slippery rocks and mosquitoes in summer.
