About this spot
Upper Rockyface Falls sits just upstream of Lower Rockyface Falls on the same Tanasee Creek tributary in Nantahala National Forest, within the little-visited gorge network near Wolf Mountain Road that also contains Cavern Falls. There is no trail and no published trip report or photo set for this specific drop, so swim or jump culture is unconfirmed. Any visit would mean off-trail travel over steep, mossy rock in a remote section of national forest.
Safety first. Cliff jumping is inherently dangerous and can cause serious injury or death. Conditions — water depth, submerged hazards, and access — change constantly. CliffScout is community-sourced reference information, not a guarantee a spot is safe. Always assess the conditions yourself before jumping, and never jump where you're unsure. You assume all risk.
