You know the drill, just drop the GPS coordinates in for the waterfall and it’s easy to find. If you want to rough it, start your trip odometer at the intersection of the Blue Ridge Parkway and US441. Drive North on US441 for 7.2 miles to a large pullout on the right. The waterfall is closer to the upper end of the pullout. Your destination is on the left. This is not the usual look, but the rain that nearly drowned me at Chasteen Creek made Cliff Branch look amazing. This one can be a dribble in drier times.
