Carmac Falls (small)_1200x900.jpg
Carmac Falls (small)1842 viewsThis part of Carmac Falls is smaller in width than the main falls and is located to the right of the main falls when facing it from downstream.

Both Falls are on private property and open to guest at Evins Mill B&B.

I have been lucky enough to stay at many B&Bs but, none with such an impressive waterfalls, and two waterfalls at that.

It may well be this falls is actually Evans Mill Falls

Drop me an email and I'll tell you how to contact them.

Below Marys Falls1881 viewsLots of water and snow after a tough hike. Well worth the hike through the jumble of trees seen in this photo

Upper -51944 views A cowardly shot from the road. I had stopped by Clinch Mountain Winery on the way to this falls and got a bottle of HOUND DOG RED, after which, my courage kicked in and with my trusty ROAMING KNOB I jousted Upper Joe Mills falls. I would have made it to the bottom but, unfortunately ran out of Hound Dog Red.

Not true but, sounded good didn't it.

Dry2586 viewsDon't drive to Big South Fork to photograph this falls unless there has been significant rainfall.

I would classify this as a wet weather falls.

That said, Needle Arch is just down the trail, less than half mile.

Squibb Creek Upper Falls **2470 viewsThis seems to be the upper most falls on Squibb Creek but, that could be a geriatrics view.

Lets one practice creek crossing, if you like that sort of thing.

Top Of Squibb Creek Falls lower falls **2511 viewsLou and I took the hike up Squibb Creek after a night of heavy rain. If your thing is creek crossing this is for you.

The round trip is about five miles and with the water level high and a trail not much different than the creek, a grand time was had by all.

We found getting to the bottom of the falls, with the high water, was a little risky hence the top photos.

I recommend this trip just for the fantastic cascades below the Falls.

Dick's Creek Falls (lower) **2502 viewsThis Falls is one of the prettier small waterfalls in the area of Limestone Cove.

I only rate it as ** because of the two mile hike, one way, and the mud holes from vehicles.
