Some folks claim that Whitewater Falls is the tallest waterfall east of the Rocky Mountains.  This can be argued depending on how you measure waterfall height.  But whether it is the tallest or not, does not change the fact that Whitewater Falls is an awe inspiring sight!

I have viewed Whitewater Falls from the tourists overlook about a dozen times, but I have never seen it up close!  Until Now!

Darrin (The Salmon) has been obsessed with Whitewater Falls for years and has found various scramble paths and bushwhack routes to all the drops of Whitewater Falls.  I took the day off from work to join Darrin and a fine group of waterfall adventurers to fully explore all drops of Whitewater Falls.

Here are some of the photos from our epic adventure!

 Translation = Welcome Team Waterfall!  Enjoy your Day!
