Quarry Falls in North Carolina

Quarry Falls is between Franklin and Highland, North Carolina. These photos were both taken on July 4th. The 2nd was taken late in the evening, after all the swimmers were gone. The book "North Carolina Waterfalls" does warn of the volumne of people swimming, but I would never had guessed, should have since it was July4th. They also jump off the side, into the pool of water at the base of the falls. As you can see in the top photo, there are some people who go straight down the falls. Notice the legs sticking up out of the falls. NOT ME!!!!
