always love to spend time with friends outside, even when it’s ridiculously hot and humid and we go somewhere more hot and humid to do things that will make us more hot 🤣🤣🚴‍♀️🥵. about an 18 mile bike ride on the swamp rabbit trail.

The Gorge just never disappoints and Wiseman’s View is always a must!! Two awesome hikes, one of my favorite views and a waterfall makes for a fantastic day! Early spring hiking is some of my fav!!

New favorite waterfall unlocked: Cullasaja Falls 😍

I’ve been wanting to see this one for years, but never got there for various reasons.

Yesterday, I finally got to visit, and I’m so glad I did! The waterfall is easily accessible from the road, though there’s limited parking and a steep path down.

Dramatic cliffs frame the falls, and it looks like something out of a movie. The scenery in WNC never fails to amaze me.

There has been snow (with a side of ice) on the ground since January 11th and with the sun out today and hitting above 50 degrees it feels like summer 😂

Please enjoy these pictures of frozen waterfalls from early January. I do love a frozen waterfall photo op and good friends ❤️
