Over Look at Ceasars Head SP toward Table Rock SP |
This mountain top park has awesome views.
Campbells' Mountain |
Seen from the same overlook is Campbell's Mountain, SC. (The farthest most peak in the photo above). It was named for the American Revolutionary war hero, Col. William Campbell who successfully led the patriots against Lt. Gen. Charles Lord Cornwallis, commander-in-chief of the
British army in the South. The patriots victory at Kings Mountain SC was one of the most important events
recorded in modern history, and changed the course of the war.
Raven Cliff Falls Caesar Head SP, SC |
We hiked 5+ miles along the flank of the upper peaks of this SC State
Park to an overlook for Raven Cliff Falls. It is possible to hike an additional 1.5 hours straight down through dismal gorge to the bottom of the falls, but the trail signs warned it would then take an additional 3 hours to hike straight back up. Alternatively we could have hiked an additional mile to a suspension bridge that crosses the top of the falls, but then we couldn't actually see the face of the falls.. We decided the overlook was the best choice for getting a good look at the 400 foot plunging waterfall.
