Our next stop was at Whitewater Falls, which is the highest waterfall east of the Rockies, falling 811 feet! The Upper Falls plummets 411 feet in the Nantahala National Forest. It's on the Whitewater River in the Jocassee Gorge area of North Carolina.
(The 400-foot Lower Falls can be accessed from a different location in South Carolina but requires a two hour strenuous hike to reach it .We decided to save the lower falls for a different day.)
