Taken with my cell phone while looking out into the forest from inside of the cave behind Big Laurel Falls at the Virgin Falls state natural area in Sparta, Tennessee. Normally there is a steady torrent of water rushing over these Falls but due to the extreme drought All Summer Long there was barely a trickle of water. There was enough however to refill our bottles on the way to the main Falls and back. If you are a serious hiker and you have at least one full day preferably two to three to spare, make sure you visit this location. It is amazing
