Happy Halloween! 👻
Forget haunted houses. North Carolina's mountains already have the spookiest spots around. Which spooky waterfall would you put on the list?

💨 🥶It was gusty and cold this past Saturday at the Friends of DuPont Forest Festival, but we enjoyed talking to all the friendlies who stopped by our table. The organizers did a terrific job in spite of the weather and Smoky the Bear made an appearance, as always. (He didn’t have much to say but he was a good sport!)

If waterfalls could talk, they'd probably have a few things to say...

They might warn you about slippery rocks or strong currents.

They might complain about people leaving trash or climbing where they shouldn't.

Or they might tell you to come back when the light shines just right, creating beautiful rainbow mists. They might hint where to spot the bird you've been hoping to see. They might even offer you peace and comfort as you enjoy their splendor.

What do you think waterfalls want you to know?

Flash flooding can happen even when skies are clear overhead.
Rainfall upstream changes waterfalls quickly.
Always check weather conditions before hiking. ⛈️

There's no better place to celebrate love than in front of a beautiful waterfall!

Congratulations to Brenna Hicks and Maliki Pope, who got engaged at Roaring Fork Falls in Burnsville on September 4th.

2 years after Hurricane Helene devastated Western North Carolina, we have seen some exciting milestones as beloved waterfalls and trails slowly reopen to visitors.

Please continue to respect closures, signage, and other safety precautions. The waterfalls are waiting patiently, and so should you.
