I took these photos last year. I think the first is Dry Falls, the second is Bridal.

Just found this info regarding bridal veil falls.

"Bridal Veil is a popular falls because of it's easy access. It's right next to the road and you can drive under it, or that is, you could. A huge section of the rock to the left of the top of the falls has collapsed (early December '03) and the road under it is closed. I'm not sure when it will reopen, but I'll try to keep you posted. "

Info is here....http://www.ncwaterfalls.com/dry1.htm

Does that mean it is going to be difficult to get our cars in there?
