Upper Catawba Falls // Old Fort, NC The reward for swimming through ice water and battling the fear of slipping right off the rocks back into the ice water is the incredible view looking up from that spot. Post-Research Fun Fact: Many individuals have died trying to climb to the top of this thing rather than taking the much safer trail that leads you there. 📷: shannonrosegreene #CatawbaFalls #NorthCarolina #Waterfalls #DayHike #MountainTrail #Wilderness #Travels #Adventure
