This is another postcard I purchased (at Sunrift Adventures) yesterday afternoon while letterboxing.
Brasstown Falls is considered a hidden gem in Oconee County in South Carolina. Some hikers might consider it a drawback that each falls has to be viewed separately...Little Brasstown Falls, Brasstown Cascades, Brasstown Veil, Brasstown Sluice. Pictured above is the Brasstown Veil and Brasstown Cascades.
The trail is steep and rocky, and supposedly it takes an hour or two to climb into and out of the gorge. I'm not sure; I haven't been here, either!

Wildflowers
This is another postcard I purchased (at Sunrift Adventures) yesterday afternoon while letterboxing.
Oconee Station State Park is located near Walhalla, South Carolina.
The Oconee Station Falls (a.k.a. Station Cove Falls) trail is 7/10 mile on a wide, mostly flat, old logging road. I guess at least some of these wildflowers (pictured above) can be seen along the trail? I'm not sure; I haven't been to this park.
The wildflowers pictured above (from left to right, top to bottom) are:
Bloodroot
Canada Violet
Sessile Bellwort
Dwarf Iris
Toadshade
Foamflower
Yellow Trillium
Rue-Anemone
At the end of the trail, the Oconee Station Falls trickles over the edge of a 50-foot high ledge.
Of note, the park features several Revolutionary War-era structures.

Whitewater Falls
This is a postcard I purchased (at Sunrift Adventures) yesterday afternoon while letterboxing.
The Upper Whitewater Falls (pictured above) is located in North Carolina. Some consider it to be the highest waterfall east of the Rocky Mountains with a drop of 411 feet.
The Lower Whitewater Falls is located in South Carolina (about two miles downstream). It drops another 400 feet.
