“Yesterday on my way back from Crossville, I came across US 70 (just for kicks and giggles) and came across this place. http://www.state.tn.us/environment/nh/natareas/ozone/ It was pretty crappy weather, so I didn't hike it, but think I will take an afternoon pretty soon and go out there. I find the neatest spots on the backroads.” 1:57:10 PM 8/31/05 “Looks like a nice spot.” 2:02:16 PM 8/31/05 chili “You should have stopped at least, it is a short (but kinda steep in one spot) trail down to the bottom of the falls. I have known about this for a few years now and sometimes stop by on my way to Knoxville or the Frozen Head area.” 8:12:49 PM 9/01/05 “It was pouring down when I got there. Discretion said another day would be better.” 1:02:05 AM 9/02/05 “beauty! I love finding stuff like that...just wandering (or driving) along and BAM! (I've got an ongoing list of "secret" waterfalls I've found in 3 states) good stuff. :)” 11:44:00 AM 9/02/05 “who is discretion?...you need to stop listening to her...she gives bad advise ;)” 11:53:49 AM 9/02/05 “it is an outstanding area and a great repelling spot. The day after a good soaking rain is best the falls are amazing.” 1:10:15 PM 9/02/05 “Had a wonderful day hike Friday. Did the 10 mile Low Gap trail in Morgan Monroe State Forest. I saw my very first, in the wild, Timber Rattle Snake. Damn near stepped on it. Good thing he rattled at me. I wish I would have had my camera with me. Took a few shots with the cell phone but they're not great. They're so docile. He just sat there on the trial not even caring that I was there. It's like he knew he could end me with one bite. If he could talk he would have said "This is my trail beotch!" Also saw 4 deer including a fawn that still had her spots. Ate tons of blackberries and thought I wondered onto private property. I think I was more afraid of some drunk hill jack shooting me for trespassing than I was of the Timber Rattler.” 7:44:04 AM 7/28/08 6:36:16 PM 7/28/08 “we saw one a few years ago in penn on wounded knee's quehanna trail trip... you know... back when he was a real backpacker and all.” 8:00:24 PM 7/28/08 “real backpackers are man enough to wear kilts!!! :D” 8:14:43 PM 7/28/08 You saw what? “The webpage cannot be found HTTP 404 Is this the link? http://www.state.tn.us/environment/na/natareas/ozone/” 5:49:01 AM 7/29/08
