The driblet of a waterfall, measuring about 18 feet, is on the side of Cold Mountain Road about two thirds of the way between the turn off of NC281 and the parking area for the East Entrance to Panthertown Valley. The easiest way to find it is to look for the section of road that was recently rebuilt. Shower Falls will be on your right! We passed it on the first day and didn’t think anything of it. When doing some reading later that night I noticed it was in Kevin Adams book. As such, I photographed it the next day and added it to my list. It is also listed on the world waterfall database website! It is worthy of a single picture.
