A handful of waterfalls I visited during my year in Banner Elk, NC. The falls are from two areas: The Stoney River of Scott County & Grayson Highlands State Park in Grayson County. From other websites I've visited this is just a small taste of what Virginia offers for waterfall hunters...

Dan Weemhoff (dwhike) > Lower Cabin Creek Falls - This is actually the lower of two drops that make up Lower Cabin Creek Falls. I love how the three streams of water come together to form one. Grayson Highlands State Park.

Dan Weemhoff (dwhike) > Upper Cabin Creek Falls - Its impossible to shoot this falls in its entirety. The cascades continued upstream as far as I could see. I had limited time so I settled for a couple isolation shots. This is one of the larger cascades near the base of the falls. Grayson Highlands State Park.

Dan Weemhoff (dwhike) > Wilson Creek Falls - This is the named waterfall on Wilson Creek but there look to be numerous more cascades both up and downstream. I am anxious to get back to this one. I love waterfalls in the fall!!! Grayson Highlands State Park.
