Catawba Falls Camping Trip!

Over Memorial weekend we went camping with the Wilcox's (great friends). We stayed at Catawba Falls Campground and I would not recommend it to anyone. You can drive about 10min. further to Pisgah National Forrest and camp for $5 a night and have much better sites!

Friday we tried to find a waterfall, but never even found the trail head. Saturday we hiked up Catawba Falls. The kids all managed the trail with minimal piggy back rides. Excluding Kaleb, but he was truckin it where he could. We made it to the base of the highest falls and the kids splashed and played in the pools at the bottom. PJ and Chris decided to hike to the very top of the waterfall. Not the safest hike! They both made it up and back down safely and enjoyed themselves.
