FS 698-Corbin Creek Rd
6/18/2011 - took a long drive up FS 698-Corbin Creek Rd, and then down Tray Mtn Rd to Hwy 75/17. This was mostly a ridgeline drive, so not very many creeks, let alone waterfalls. I did hear one, right where I have a potential one marked on my map - but I couldn't see it. Will have to go back in the fall, might get a glimpse when the leaves are off the trees. I did get one nice sliding falls, which is actually much taller than the photo I got, but I had to get so close, and I was shooting right into the sun, that I could only get the bottom of it. I'll have to try again, maybe later in the day, or when it's cloudy.
According to GMAPS this falls is on Kendall Branch
GPS: 34°50'46"N 83°41'23"W
Directions and Information: from Helen GA
north on Hwy 75/17 over Unicoi Gap
right on Corbin Creek Rd - FS 698
Note: after you turn off of Hwy 75/17 the gravel road branches immediately. FS 698 is marked with a sign and goes sharply back to the right.
