Watery Wednesday #74: Waterfall on Log Hollow Branch

Waterfall on Log Hollow Branch, Brevard, North Carolina. December 12, 2009.

This is my post for Watery Wednesday.  To see more of our beautiful watery world, or to join and post your own pictures to share, click HERE.

In December, 2009, Betsy and I spent a couple of days in Brevard, North Carolina, visiting waterfalls.  Since it was cold while we were there, we didn’t  have to worry about crowds on the trails, although we did meet a few other hardy souls.

Our longest hike was along Log Hollow Branch north of Brevard near Looking Glass Rock.  On our two-mile hike we saw three waterfalls, including the one above.  There was a good flow of water over the falls, and if you look closely (the picture can be enlarged by clicking on it), you’ll even see a few icicles.

I’m very grateful for all the wonderful people I’ve met in Blogland.

    One of the best things about winter is having the trail to yourself. With the ice and snow (not to mention the wind) not even the hardiest are braving the trails right now.

    I do love all your photos of naturally occurring waterfalls … the only ‘falling’ water I see here in So Cal is in fountains (and faucets).
    Hugs and blessings,

    I see the icicles. It looks like a nice place to hike, but maybe not right now. Snowshoe maybe?

    there’s lots of water in that falls unlike here falls are nearly empty some are already dried up.

  21. Louise Cannon's avatar Louise Cannon Says:

    All those beautiful waterfalls (3 in a 2-mile hike? Wow!) might make up for the lack of sun this time of year your part of the country.

    Congrats on the award above. I love your list. I would have expected the #1; it’s obvious all the time! (I love happy people.)

    Your hike was worth it these falls are beautiful.
