 Carmac Falls (small)1842 viewsThis part of Carmac Falls is smaller in width than the main falls and is located to the right of the main falls when facing it from downstream.

Both Falls are on private property and open to guest at Evins Mill B&B.

I have been lucky enough to stay at many B&Bs but, none with such an impressive waterfalls, and two waterfalls at that.

It may well be this falls is actually Evans Mill Falls

Drop me an email and I'll tell you how to contact them.

 Carmac, The main Event!1842 viewsI consider myself very lucky to be standing knee deep in a creek photographing this falls.

Actually there are two falls, side by side but, separated. I am not sure, even after looking at the map, if the one on the right is Evans Mill Falls.

 Painter initials1841 viewsTo hike to Painter Creek Falls one must obtain permission from the owner of the property at the trail head. Thanks to that property owner we found a pristine creek and falls. The falls is located about two miles up the creek with only about a fourth of that having a trail.

Thanks to Gene, the owner, and the Forest service for keeping Sampson Mountain a wilderness.

 From the Ozone To The Abyss1836 viewsTop of Ozone Falls looking down.

What this place needs is a good safety officer.
Actually, one can do this quiet safely by mounting a camera on a light weight tripod or monopod, delay the shot, focus and press the shutter button. Hold the camera out over the edge until it clicks.
