Media of the day

The northern end of Gorges State Park borders US64 as you are heading west through Lake Toxaway. The road passes over the top of Toxaway Falls on the Toxaway River, and there's a nice wide shoulder on the dam side to pull over, park, and take a look. Lake Toxaway is on the upper side of the road. On the opposite side of the road, Toxaway Falls spills and slides over some very colorful bedrock in a 240 feet (73 m) change in elevation before the river disappears into the forest.
