5/5/2013 - took advantage of a lull in the rain to make a quick trip to Dahlonega to vidwo a couple of waterfalls that are easy to get to. Got this one and Clay Creek Falls as well.
10/28/2011 - went back to Camp Glisson to get the GPS points for this falls. Took more pictures. On this day the only thing open to the public was the falls. At the Visitors Center I was told everything else was closed.
4/10/2011 - My trip was funny. As you drive in, there is a sign pointing to the falls and you go down a short, but winding drive. I got to the bottom, and saw a parking area but NO falls. Darn! So I drove through the parking and out on a road on the other side, but when I started getting into a cabin area I decided I must have missed a turn or something. So I turned around and drove back to the parking and there before me were the falls! It is BEHIND you as you come
down the drive.
GPS: 34°33'19"N 84°0'32"W
Compare the video to the photo. It's amazing what 3 days of continuous rain can do to a waterfall!
