There are a total of eight different waterfalls along Steels Creek: Newt Falls, Upper Steels Creek Falls, Rip Breeches Falls, Beverly Hillbilly Falls, Teacup Falls, Upper Steels Creek Falls (The Kettles), Lower Steels Creek Falls (The Kettles), and Zig Zag Falls, which is technically on a tributary to Steels Creeks. This hike will take you on the eastern slope of the Linville Gorge to four of these waterfalls: Newt Falls, Upper Steels Creek Falls, Rip Breeches Falls, and Teacup Falls. On another hike, we will get to the ones we missed. *The goal of this video was to do the footwork so you don't have to. However, if you choose to see any of these waterfalls, please exercise caution and proceed at your own risk. Here is the route we took for this hike. The blank gap between Newt Falls and the MST is when we drove down the gravel road to Upper Steels Creek Falls. https://www.alltrails.com/explore/recording/evening-hike-at-newt-falls-trail-ef9280f Notes: • Newt Falls: The creek crossing at the very top of the falls is slippery and the water is swift. Be careful that you don't slip and ride down the falls. In his book, Kevin Adams writes, "I don't think it's worth climbing down the steep slope for a better view (p. 66, North Carolina Waterfalls)." For purposes of trail erosion, I agree. However, I humbly disagree that Newt Falls isn't attractive or worth the effort to see. There isn't room for more than 2 people at the base of the falls, but I found it to be a beautiful waterfall and definitely worth the effort I exerted to capture it on video. • Upper Steels Creek Falls: This waterfalls is almost roadside. In my opinion, it's family friendly but maybe not for lower elementary aged kids. The creek area is nice and easy to explore. Getting to the base of the falls requires a steep but short climb down the roots of a tree. Another option is to creek walk, but you will likely get wet. This waterfall is very beautiful and excellent for pictures and video. • Rip Breeches Falls: Breeches is the original spelling for "britches." In 1571, "britches" was introduced as an alternative spelling for breeches. They are essentially pronounced the same. Ok, enough English grammar. This is one the most unique waterfalls I've ever visited. It's hard to reach, mostly due to the rhododendron smacking you in the face. For this scramble, slow and steady wins the race. Go easy and don't break any branches. It's easier to reach the top of the falls, which reminds me of the top of Looking Glass Rock. I have to say, it was very tempting to slide down this waterfall like Sliding Rock. The base of Rip Breeches Falls is strikingly beautiful. We were pleasantly surprised! It reminded us of an Irish garden. • Teacup Falls: We could have stayed here all day. There's a small beach area where you can sit and eat lunch while you enjoy the falls. The plunge basin is large and empties at the southern end - making a small cascade as the water tumbles down the rocks that surround the lower section of the creek. It sort of looks like a woodland infinity pool. This would be a great place to swim in the summer. I imagine you could slide down the rock face of the waterfall, but I don't know this for sure. Bring a rope with you in case the sloped rock entrance to the area is wet. • Game Habitat Improvement - NC Wildlife Resources Commission: I contacted the NCWRC and they provided me with some information. Part of the Linville Gorge is in the Pisgah Game Lands Program that is cooperatively managed with the U.S. Forest Service. It’s likely that the game land biologists and mangers are doing some logging in this area like thinning, selection cuts, or something similar.  This could also be an area that has had or is scheduled to have controlled burns in the future.  In general, that’s the sort of activity referred to when talking about managing land to improve habitat.  Improving the habitat means opening up thicker forest to allow for regrowth of trees and herbaceous plant growth for the benefit of game species like bears, turkeys, grouse, deer, and migratory songbirds.  • LIKE this video if you love to hike! • SUBSCRIBE to help keep this channel going! • SHARE with a friend who's got your back on the trails!
