On Horsepasture River is Rainbow Falls, a staggering 125-foot waterfall wowing visitors year-round because of the sheer volume of water falling from the rock face and into a deep pool below. The wind and large amounts of water create a mist that rises up the hillside, often creating rainbows when the sun is in the right position. © David Carillet | Dreamstime.com
