Looking Glass Falls: It’s pretty breath-taking, huh?

This time, my sister Patricia and I went searching for waterfalls, and we found a couple of beauties in the Pisgah National Forest in Transylvania County.

Trish went the extra mile to get good photos.

The last of two we found turned out to be the best. It was Looking Glass Falls, and it was pretty fantastic. My sister, my dog Tyler and I walked down the steps to get a good look at it. (Later, we’d walk back up. Whew! I need to get in better shape.) I took some photos, and so did my sister. In fact, my sister maneuvered around to get some better photos. I stayed at the observation area with Tyler.

Tyler strikes an irresistible while at Looking Glass Falls.

And speaking of Tyler, he didn’t seem all that taken by the waterfall. He seemed more interested in charming the ladies.

Sliding Rock Falls, at Pisgah National Forest.

Earlier, we viewed Sliding Rock Falls in the forest. This place doubles as a water slide and swimming hole. But on this mid-October day, the air — and presumably the water — was too chilly for people to don their bathing suits and take the plunge.
