Motorcycle Ride to Whitewater Falls

 We take a ride to Whitewater Falls - highest falls East of the Rockies.

We start on the Great Smokey Mountains Expressway

Then follow the Tuckaseegee River


Past Glenville Lake

Through Cashiers 


Our first stop is Silver Run Falls

A short but pretty hike/walk



To a small Fall and pool

We continue on to Whitewater Falls

A glimpse of Lake Jocasse I believe 

Guess I missed the South Carolina sign


We make it to the trail

And soon get a view of the falls


411 feet tall


There is a stair master down - 154 steps down 


A little better view down here


What goes down goes back up!


Another view of Lake Jocasse

And then we head home

Can't avoid road work, even in the forest


We stop at Sunburst Falls on 215 on our way home.  We've driven by several times but never stopped.


Looks inviting!



A really nice ride!
