Along the Blue Ridge Parkway you will find Crabtree Falls. You should stop. It is not right on the parkway so lots of people miss it but what a treat. It is a hike to the top and you start at the bottom so be prepared and - for sure- pay attention to the signs. Someone dies here almost every year or two. We were short on time this day so only did a platform on the lower falls. The water was intense have a huge summer storm that passed through the area a few hours earlier. This is a tiny shot of the power of water.
