Full Bloom at Crow Creek
Great Laurel (Rosebay Rhododendron) in bloom at Crow Creek Falls. Crow Creek Falls are located on Crow Creek near where it empties into Lake Seed (between Lake Burton and Lake Rabun). The stream's headwaters are on Oakey Mtn, but its watershed also includes the southern portion of Crow Mountain. The falls themselves are approximately 15 ft. high. The area around the falls is quite open, and would be a wonderful place to spend a hot summer afternoon. (0.3 sec at f/9.0)
