I took a "mental health day" with a friend of mine and we stumbled onto something cool - Ausable Chasm. Our original plan was simply to point the car north, look at the changing foliage and just wing it from there. 
While exiting the interstate for a smaller highway, we spied a sign claiming that there was a chasm about a mile away. I exclaimed, "A chasm? Let's check that out! It might be cool" and then proceeded to make a right hand turn from the left lane. (No worries. . . no traffic).
Let's hear it for spontaneity, because it was a good day! You trek about a mile through the woods around the chasm and eventually along the sides of the walls. In places steps have been added for your convenience, but it is most certainly NOT for acrophobics. If you pay an additional fee, you can raft with a guide down part of the river. The bottom two pictures were taken from the raft. I'd recommend the trip to all my friends!
