De Sota Falls *


P1010417_1200x900.jpg

The Big Kahuna of Alabama waterfalls. It has a plunge of 104 ft.

Due to being nearly surrounded by private property it would be extremely hard to reach the bottom of the falls.

Indian Falls1847 viewsI only classify this as a ** due to there being a small descent and underneath an outcropping of rocks.
