If you are serious about hiking to and/or shoot waterfalls, this is the essential tool to help you do that. It is informative, insightful, and, at times, humorous. The photographs are beautiful and inspirational. I suspect I will have to replace this at some point because of wear. It is one of a only a handful of things that stays in my backpack.

The best resource for NC waterfalls. Great photos, and detailed descriptions and directions. I use this resource regularly and it will take me a lifetime to get to all of the falls described.
