Lost Cove Waterfalls

LinkThese are from the same day as above out at the Lost Cove area of Pisgah National Forest. The top photo is an unnamed waterfall off of FS road 981. This was still early in the morning and standing in the brisk water trying to get my shotty little tripod to stay standing was a bit painful, but worthwhile. In the middle is Huntfish Falls. To get to Huntfish Falls take the 0.7 mile downhill trail 263 from FS road 464. This area is fairly crowded, especially on the weekends with campers and day-hikers, understandably so. The last shot is of a creek that flows down into the Huntfish Falls waterhole. I didn't really take any shots at North Harper Falls because we didn't go all the way to the bottom this time. Hopefully I'll be back that way soon, but earlier next time...

Winklers Creek



Last week my good friend Stan and I planned to head out to the Blue Ridge parkway for the afternoon to enjoy some sunny weather. By the time we got off of work the clouds had quickly filled the sky as they tend to do here in the mountains. We opted to go to nearby Winklers Creek instead and do a little exploring. I shot a few photos (realistically as we are in the digital age, a few hundred) while Stan diligently worked on his new found passion, rock carving. Enjoy.
