Brasstown Falls

 

                                     Brasstown Falls

     We finally left the house at nine in the morning, about an hour later than I wanted to. Of course we stopped and grabbed a biscuit to go from the local Hardee's before driving to Oconee county. I have known about this place for years but never took the time to see what it was all about. We followed directions that we pulled up on my cell phone and they took us right where we wanted to be. Well worth the 90 minute drive; the weather was cool, the trail easy and the falls beautiful. Other people were with us but for the most part we had the spot to ourselves.

     Get out and enjoy the Upstate of South Carolina!

MAX PACTH

Finally able to post these Max Patch views from our August 2024 trip. Really have nothing to add, the 360 degree view is better than any words I could come up with.

When you visit please keep the mountain clean and enjoy the peace and beauty of this wonderful place.

Morning walk

 

Let's just talk about the outdoors in general and how nice it is to be able to have the opportunity  to get outside and enjoy it. Arrived at the trail head at eight this morning and was greeted with a nice bird solo echoing across the lake. As my hike followed the well cleared path more music joined the chorus the deeper into the woods I wandered. The tree coved trail was dry but the exposed sections had a light dew glistening off of the decaying leaves. The hike was fast, I've a busy schedule today and many places to be; glad to start my day hiking!
