Family Vacation - Summer 2000
Hike to Mouse Creek Falls, N.C. |

|
Gary, Faith, Tim, Pam & Walt in the
background ... at the beginning the hike ... this fall is up the Big Creek Trail on the
slopes of Mount Sterling. |
Another pic of the group before heading up
the Big Creek Trail ... now you can see Walt & Gary a little better! |

|
Mouse Creek Falls is a 50 foot drop cascade
at the mouth of Mouse Creek
... several streams twine together to pass through a four foot opening
before spreading again to form a wide base of falling water
... a small pool at the base slows the water as it crosses an old
logging railroad bed ... the water then cascades another 10 feet to join Big Creek. |
The group at the top of the trail ... we
look a little bit more tired, don't we? ... well, this included getting caught in a
thunderstorm! |
