Below the basin of the falls lies a swamp-like area filled with otter, deer and other wildlife indigenous to Oklahoma. Therein lies a fragile ecosystem that tails off with charging falls when rainfall is plentiful. The other beautiful photos here were taken at various stop-points along our way, including the Heavener-Runestone State Park, which is a must-see for any nature lover. The photo to your right is a wishing well of sorts located within the park. Our only regret was that we didn't allow more time for exploration. The authentic Runestone rests within a stone-walled nest with other interesting artifacts. The discoveries prove that Columbus wasn't the first explorer to the New World. Heavener-Runestone State Park is lush, green, and is very cliffy. A hiking trail ropes around one tall cliff of the park where one can obtain a magnificent overview of the area.
Birds are very plentiful within the park. Nesting opportunities abound. The wetlands are also a very big draw. Don't forget to check out spots along the Illinois River. I'd highly recommend renting a canoe.
