On this day we planned a trip with our son and daughter in law that took us to the area around Highlands, NC. Any time we can spend with our children is special. There are several waterfalls visible from the car on U. S. 64, 3.5 miles west of Highlands. This photo is of Dry Falls that has a 75 ft falls that you can walk behind. It was an awesome feeling to walk under this waterfall.
Also on this trip you can do Whitewater Falls on NC 107; Silver Run Falls also off NC 107; Looking Glass Falls visible from US 276; Lower Cullasaja Falls off U.S. 64; Glen Falls on NC 106; and Bridal Veil Falls on US 64.
We took this trip in October and the colors were spectacular and due to the large amount of rain we had this particular year, the volume of water coming over the falls was massive. Beautiful area for anyone who would like to retire in the mountains. There is a beautiful lake in this area also. There are numerous restaurants and places to shop in the nearby towns of Highlands, Dillsboro and Franklin. It was a GREAT DAY...
