Hi, Dave. Thanks for commenting.
From the Blue Ridge Heritage Website:
"Upper Whitewater Falls, near Cashiers, North Carolina, drops over 411 feet and is the highest falls east of the Rocky Mountains. Lower Whitewater Falls, located just across the border in South Carolina, drops another 400 feet."
From Wikipedia"
"Whitewater Falls is a series of waterfalls and cascades on the Whitewater River in South Carolina. Over the 2.4 mile (3.9 km) course of the river on the two falls, the Whitewater River drops 1071 ft. (330.5 m.)."
Apparently they are taking into account the total drop in elevation. I'll leave it to the experts to figure it out. Anyway, it is a great site to behold. Thanks, again.
Cheers,
Ed
