This is a 200-foot falls that's accessible by a trail coming down from the Blue Ridge Parkway, or up from the bottom near Buchanan Virginia on I-88.
The landscape in this area reminded me of the movie Cold Mountain.

I love it! Never saw that one.

Did you by chance head over to Crabtree Falls?
“There’s an inconsequentiality to our lives that living in the wilderness shows up. Mountain are real, they set their limits, they set ours. They expose us, make us vulnerable and strong at the same time. “

I didn't get to Crabtree. I had to pick up my daughter at Lynchburg airport after this hike. When she missed her flight, I headed over to Appomattox instead.
