Anyone been to Mississippi's "Little Grand Canyon"?

Just looking for a day trip. This place is only a little over an hour from home, and we were considering checking it out. For those who have visited, is it worth it?

I'd never even heard of it. Been looking for a good day trip place to go. Interested to see if anyone who's been there has something to say about it.

It’s on private land, but the landowners live out of state and don’t seem to mind people visiting the property. Recently cops were asking people to leave (due to COVID), but were telling them they could come back once things have calmed down.

Been many times, fascinating place. Hike down and then mountain climb back up off the road. It is private property and there is an active train track nearby too.

I lived 30 miles from there for a decade & never even heard of it.

It's a cool little place for photo ops, hiking up and down and watching sundown. Near Morgantown.

It's muddy as hell right now.
You can also take a short hike along a creek to the Pearl River. There is a small swimming hole next to the river.

Looks very similar, but larger, than the canyon area at Bogue Chitto State Park.

Drone view of the site.

This terrain can't be a 2-hr drive from Baton Rouge. I think this is one of those Mandela effect parallel universe deals.

If I was the private land owner of this property I wouldn't let people walk through it for liability reasons. A fall resulting in a serious injury or worse would surely be a major lawsuit. People and their lawyers are always looking for easy ways to get the big bucks. I'm not willing to jeopardize my hard earned money and retirement savings to defend myself. There would be "no trespassing" signs all over the place with a private guard to keep people out.

Cut through there one Sunday and I was amazed. Saw a lot of wildlife, too, on that road. I think the highway had to be rebuilt since then, as the erosion creeped too close to the road.

It’s been talked about on here before.

If you didn't tell me that was in Mississippi I wouldn't believe it. I still am not sure I believe that is in Mississippi.

We used to go there as far back as the 1970’s for birthday parties, Boy Scout trips, etc. Its always been referred to as Fricke’s Cave and the name has stuck.
People I knew kind of stopped going after Robert Lee Willie and an accomplice kidnapped, raped, and murdered Faith Hathaway there.

And it's in south Mississippi off the Pearl river.
