Help Protect North Carolina's Waterfalls
W
estern North Carolina's
amazing bounty of watefalls-more
than 200-has been
a lifetime fascination for Kevin
Adams, long-time friend of the
magazine and author of the definitive
" North Carolina Waterfalls, "
now in its third edition.
One of Adams' recent undertakings
in the realm invites
waterfall fans to help with
their protection, maintenance
and even adoption. Waterfall
Keepers of North Carolina, a
non-profit whose website is as
easy-going and charming as Adams
himself, offers Carolina falls fans the
opportunity to join and volunteer to
degrees ranging from casual help to
becoming an adopter of a specific
waterfall, which entails visiting four
times a year-twice for distant falls-
for cleanup and care.

YEARS AGO
And Speaking of
Waterfalls . . .
The U.S Postal Service has honored
three Blue Ridge region waterfalls
among its recent issue of 10 Forever
waterfall stamps: North Carolina Upper
Falls along the Blue Ridge Parkway;
Dark Hollow Falls in Virginia's
Shenandoah National Park; and
Grotto Falls in the Tennessee section
of Great Smoky Mountains National
Park.
-Becky Hepler, in
Sept/Oct. '88 issue
on the death of
Mount Mitchell
namesake Dr.
Elisha Mitchell.
" Upon examining Mitchell,
the searchers found a bruise
on his forehead and that his
watch had stopped at 8:19
p.m. They surmised that after
visiting the summit, Mitchell
was overtaken by darkness
and decided to follow the
stream down the ridge. In
the darkness he slipped, fell
into the pool, was knocked
unconscious and drowned. "
