Most Eastern?2353 viewsThis waterfall is located at: N36.60942 W081.67726 and I'll betcha it is the most Eastern Waterfall in Tennessee.
To qualify on this site it must be 8 ft high or more. Can you find one more to the East and still be in Tennessee?

First Trip 2393 viewsBJ made her first trip to the bottom of Linville Gorge. She sure was a great hiking pal.
Actually she had no trouble and we had energy to see the Plunge Pool.
If you are reasonably fit and visiting Western North Carolina, you should go down to the gorge. After the crowds go home and during the work week this is a wonderful place to sit in awe of what time and water has wrought.

Forest Service2390 viewsMet this man at the Catawba Falls, NC trail head.
I'll use him to just say thanks to the U.S. Forest Service for all their work on our trails.
Because of their work we have access to one of the worlds great resources, the United States Forest.
If he lets me know his name I'll make him a CREW MEMBER, a distinction most try to avoid.

Charlie 2922 viewsWe met Charlie on Little Stony Creek Trail accompanying his friend down a very cold trail.
After making sure we were no threat he assumed his watch atop the back pack. When his transportation knelled down Charlie took his post atop the back pack. No, he did this willingly of his own accord. Dec 31, 2014
