Went for a #hike that was more of a walk this morning, to #BridalVeilFalls in the #DuPontForest here in Western #NC (#TransylvaniaCounty yes you HAVE to say it that way)

Anyway, it is a very, very wide, fairly gradual falls, that is somewhat misleading. I have a couple of little videos, if you need some water #zen
