Description

The Sinks is an unnatural waterfall on the Little River, in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Opportunity for some novelty DWS on the 15-20 ft boulder overhanging the center of the swimming hole. Kinda choss, muddy and wet in spots. Lots of fun.

Water is 8-12 feet deep surrounding the boulder. But check for logs and other debris as rivers change day to day. Also watch out for kids jumping overhead.
