ICY Waterfall


On 1/25/2008, George and I drove to the Smokies (to the Tremont area between Townsend and Cades Cove) to hike to a new waterfall, Spruce Flats Falls. We parked at Tremont and hiked the 2.5 mile round-trip hike. It was a cold day (temperature in the low 30's) in the mountains. When we got to the waterfall, we were so glad we went. This waterfall is drop-dead gorgeous!!!! Due to the weather, it was very ICY. WOW!!!! Here are some pictures of our icy waterfall for you to enjoy. Above is the entire waterfall from a distance. Below are several more pictures.












Hope you enjoyed our hike to this 'ICY' waterfall. We had a wonderful day--and hope to see more icy waterfalls this month and next.
