Carolina Mountain Club Challenges

• Waterfall Challenge - Setrock Creek Falls

We drove to the Mount Mitchell area to visit a couple of waterfalls on the CMC Waterfall Challenge. The route our car directed us had several miles of very twisty road. I was feeling queasy even though I was driving. Then onto a single lane dirt road but luckily, we didn't encounter any cars. The parking lot is across the street from the Black Mountain Campground office. We crossed the bridge towards the campground, at which point there are white blazes to follow the trail. There were plenty of signs, so navigation was easy. The hike to the waterfall is easy. The waterfall had a very shallow pool, but Krumm was happy to wade in it.
