Me at Schoolhouse Falls
My Team Waterfall group had a big adventure planned for
Saturday around Panthertown, NC. I
decided to get an early start to the weekend and took a vacation day on Friday.
After setting up camp at a nice spot along Greenland Creek I hit the trails for a bit of solo dayhiking.
Here are some of the highlights:

After my buddy Andy arrived we did the short hike from our
campsite to Greenland Creek Falls.

After visiting Greenland Creek Falls, we got the campfire going and enjoyed a nice relaxing evening around the campfire with absolutely no rain and perfect camping temperatures!

This was a great start to what would prove to be an awesome weekend!
