Our second waterfall for the day was even easier and was close to Setrock Creek Falls. The trail passes two bunkers that were used for storing explosives. We couldn't find out any more about them - ammunition for what? This waterfall was very pretty. Again, the pool at the bottom was shallow, so Krummholz could wade in it. On the way home, we chose a different route - the BRP passing by Mount Mitchell and Craggy Gardens. Nicer driving plus views!
