Waterfalls of NC Mapped
Filed Under western north carolina
I found this great article about how the Weather channel had come to Western North Carolina for the fall colors as well as for the waterfalls. Our region has numerous waterfalls and up until recently locating and taking a look at more than just a handful was a bit of a challenge. There is now though, a map of the waterfalls of North Carolina that makes it a lot easier to locate and get a good look at these wonders of nature.
I will say that most of the deaths you will hear reported in the summer in Western North Carolina are of hikers near waterfalls. Be careful, cautious and aware that wet rocks can be slippery. Don’t go into uncertain areas without a guide. Stay on marked hiking trails and be safe.
