The Nolichucky at 16,000 should clue people into possiblities in the watershed. In just the few roadside stops i saw numerous ten foot drops, a clean thirty footer, and a potentially runnable fifty footer. I uuess this one is the Spivey Falls listed on maps of the area. Probably the creek was too high for most of the day, i saw it after 5 PM today and it looked to be a perfect level. There were many more drops and gradient that i couldn't see. The few i did look at were serious video quality big ones similar to N. Fork Catawba." StreamTeam Status: unverified
