Pinnacle Falls

...Truly a majestic, towering pinnacle of a waterfall...One of South Carolina's finest, located in the ridgelines below Sassafras Mountain, South Carolina's highest mountain in the Blue Ridge. This photo was made from a platform literally hanging off the side of the ridge line in sight of the waterfall. Take note of the three trees at the foot of the falls. My friend Harmon and I were standing right there in that brown patch of stone shooting upwards into the main cascade from the other side of the creek. As you can see, the ridgelines in here are steep, and my buddy and I hiked down that ridgeline you see directly across from this view (about a 421 foot drop)....It's like this throughout the Jocassee Gorges...More photos will be forthcoming from yet another viewing platform located below...
