Upper Shoal Creek Falls is one of two waterfalls on this section of Shoal Creek. The waterfalls appear to be on private property, although I wasn’t aware of this at the time. We found the coords online, so I have no problem posting them. The hike began in South Mounatins State Park. Since I don’t know for sure, I am documenting them but I can’t provide directions without knowing for sure. We went in armed with the GPS coords. What I can say is the easiest way to the falls, walking Branstrom Orchard St is heavily posted.
