That was SO much fun!!! You're definitely not catching me on top of that rock though! 😂

[@BeHereTravel]

It would be fuuuuuuuun ;)

[@AntonXCify]

Thank you for letting us wheelchair users see that we are able to go to this place and we will be able to view it perfect from certain places :-)

[@BeHereTravel]

I try to be as inclusive in my videos as I can. Thx Anton

[@marmeedoll]

highlands. we used to dive that route to GAU . Once upon our time you could drive under the falls on the way to the Eastern Continental Divide.

[@BeHereTravel]

Very cool

[@heathercovington5220]

Secret was my favorite falls forever. Now it’s gotten busy

[@BeHereTravel]

I know, You just got a plan ahead to get days where it's not so busy.

[@notsoscarystories4439]

I love this video, and the info / links in the description are very useful. Thank you.

[@ericflagg7556]

Nice video and you hit some great spots around Highlands! For future reference, the Cullsaja River and Cullasaja Falls are pronounced with a long 'a' before the 'j' and the 'j' is a hard 'j'. Cullah-say-jah

[@BeHereTravel]

Noted, my research made me believe that the proper pronunciation from the original name had the J sounding like an H. Apparently, that research was flawed.

[@ramblinrick4u]

Yes, I was about to say the same. It, like many other names in the area, are Native American and it had reference to "Sweet Water." Like Nantahala is nan-tuh-hay-luh referring to noonday sun. Also, we locals used to go to the "Quarry Hole." It was changed to Bust Your Butt by tourists that had this confused with Bust Your Butt which is above Rainbow and Turtleback. If you go back to the USFS Information Board you will find the name, "Quarry Hole." This is where the old rock quarry used to be when this road was originally built. There is no telling the answers you may get when asking other tourists.

[@donmassey9995]

I grew up in the area myself pronouncing this way since but the Native American pronunciation the way he said is accurate.

[@riseandflyhigh]

Awesome view, Very well captured. some of the best shots I've seen so far. I was so impressed and inspired by your videos. hope your Butt is back in form/recovered 😂😂 (5:45-5:55).

[@BeHereTravel]

Thank you very much. Yes my butt has recovered :)

[@karenclabaugh5416]

These Waterfalls are definitely on my bucket list. Ohhhh .....The Stairs.. I hate 'em too.. Amicolala and Tallulah . Isabel, I bet there is never a dull moment with your hubby! LOL

[@BeHereTravel]

I try my best to keep her entertained 😉

[@leebuckton3453]

Thank for the great video

[@BeHereTravel]

Thank you very much. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Do you live in Highlands?

[@LucasWorldTravel]

Wow we love chasing waterfalls and didn't know North Carolina had so many beautiful ones. I can't wait to walk around Dry Falls and Cullasaja Falls literally made my jaw drop. Love your humor so much! Such a great video!

[@BeHereTravel]

North Carolina is FULL of waterfalls. You can visit the first 4 on this video in an afternoon. If you visit Cullasaja, BE CAREFUL, it is not easy to go down that hill or come up. I totally fell in the water and nearly hurt myself. But that's part of the adventure right! 😁 Check out my waterfall episode in North Georgia, those are great too 👍

[@halfbreed_overlander614]

Ah man, you were right up the road from Glenn Falls. Its right down the main road from Secret Falls. The bottom of it that is.

[@BeHereTravel]

Next time I go to the area, I'll look it up. Thx 😀

[@ATrainHC]

How did Glen Falls not make the list!?! ;-)

[@BeHereTravel]

That's very simple. The weather only gave me so much time to film.

[@ATrainHC]

@@BeHereTravel But getting there is so easy! Getting back up the trail isn't quite as enjoyable, though. :-D

[@BeHereTravel]

@@ATrainHC I'll try that the next time

[@greasysquirrel1435]

You should go one county lower to Oconee SC. A bunch of waterfalls and mountain lakes. The people aren’t a bunch of snobs like in highlands. If you do I can give you some pointers on the most beautiful places to go.

[@BeHereTravel]

I'll take that into consideration. Thx

[@liquidevidence9110]

I'm moving just south of Cashiers NC and would love to get some ideas on what to check out in Oconee!

[@greasysquirrel1435]

@@liquidevidence9110 Yellow Branch falls is one of my favorite. Issaqueena is another, they have a deck you can walk out on and it’s right beside Stumphouse tunnel. Brass town falls has three sections and are absolutely Beautiful. The Oconee history museum is awesome to by the way. Oconee Station falls are beautiful to and a very short walk. Check out the station while your there. Chattooga Belle farms is a nice place to visit to. It’s a vineyard and has a awesome view and is a nice place to visit. I’ll try to think of a few more.

[@greasysquirrel1435]

@@liquidevidence9110 and just about anywhere up Hwy 28 on the Chattooga river is worth going to. The Russell house on 28 right at the Georgia line is a cool little place to visit .

[@greasysquirrel1435]

@@liquidevidence9110 King Creek Falls is an easy trail to walk also. If you have a access to a kayak lake Jocassee has waterfalls that come into the lake that are pretty cool. The Botanical Gardens In Clemson are nice also.

[@japanjack62]

Thanks man, I just hope people visit here and not move here....

[@rkeithcooke]

Kullasaha???? Cullasaja is pronounced Kull-uh-SAY-juh

[@BeHereTravel]

I know that now, I didn't know that when the video was made. Everyone makes mistakes
