The Catawba does most of the waterfall work for Concord. Its Great Falls sit at the far southern edge of the fifty-mile circle in South Carolina, two miles of riverside trail. Cedar Falls handles the quick outings, half a mile with the dog along. Great Falls, the unadorned entry, lists nothing else. With three falls on the page, Concord treats waterfall hiking as a day-trip sport, and the serious chasing happens on mountain weekends.
