North Fork Stony Creek - Cherokee National Forest

It takes a bit of off-trail hiking to reach North Fork Stony Creek, but it's well worth the effort. An amazing rich woodland, a lovely amphitheater, and a great waterfall (especially in wet weather). The best approach is from Holston Mountain Trail, and it's best to bring along a GPS unit as well. Be prepared to push through some rhododendron thickets, and for some slippery footing!

(Comment from Randy)Great looking waterfall and nice photo!
