Welcome to Fall Creek Falls State Park, Pikeville TN. What an incredible place! Come and see what I saw on Sunday, August 1, 2004 ...

The map of Fall Creek Falls outside the Nature center. 

A suspension bridge across the 'gorge' swimming area - you can see the 'beach' area on the other side. The cliffs are directly across from the 'beach'.

The 'gorge' (the lady in the nature center called it "the george" LOL). See the people standing on the cliff to jump in? 

The far end of the 'gorge' and end of the swimming area.

How trees grow in this area. Really cool looking

View of the cascades. If you look very closely you'll see the same people sitting at the top of the cascades as you saw from above, when on the suspension bridge.

Boys at play at the base of the cascades 

Huge rocks at the base of the cascades.

Inside the Nature center. No, it's not alive - at least not anymore.

The natural "ampitheater" at the base of Fall Creek Falls. Those little tiny things at the bottom? Those are people swimming and sunning... Per the handout, the flora at the base of the gorge is similar to what is found in southern Canada.

I stopped at this unnamed turnoff for a photo op - ignore me and enjoy the view. :-P
