Bart Bledsoe shared:
The main attraction here is the 30' high Eagle Creek Falls, which lands on rock at most flows. With the right water level, there might be a line. Immediately below the falls is a runnable drop which lands in the Cumberland River. The best way to access the area with a boat is to carry down to the beach below Cumberland Falls and ferry across the river to Eagle Creek. If you are not carrying a boat, just hike in on the Eagle Falls trail.
