Top Of Squibb Creek Falls lower falls **2367 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.

Hemlock Falls 32366 viewsSorry but, due to time constraints, the falls located in Cloudland Canyon State Park, Georgia, are of poor quality and both tint and contrast were adjusted to make them usable.

Near darkness!

Sink Hole Plunge2364 viewsThe water was nearly non-existent on our arival and lighting could not have been worse but, who can pass up the tallest water fall in Florida? The falls plunges 73 ft into a sink hole that appears to have been there forever.
