Sill Branch Falls

I finally got to get out and enjoy some nature today for the first time since getting back into TN on Friday.  It has been absolutely frigid since I have been home but Sara and I decided to go out and take a little hike to Sill Branch Falls in Erwin today.  Needless to say it was a little cold.  The hike was only a mile round trip so it was nice and short.

The falls were completely frozen so it was quite a bit different from the pictures that I have seen of it.  Up close it was pretty awesome though.  There were an infinite number of icicles resulting from all the drips from the falls.  Here are a couple pictures from the hike:

Here a shot of the falls (by Mark Peacock from Appalachian Treks) when it is not 20 degrees outside.  Quite a bit different huh?
