The Curry Gap/Bald Mountain Trail starts out as one of the most boring trails ever.  For the first mile and a half, the trail follows an old roadbed, gradually but steadily climbing upwards with nothing to see but trees on both sides.  Beginning with Bottleneck Falls, however, the trail passes three small volume, but very pretty waterfalls in the next .7 miles.  These three waterfalls combined with the easy hike, make this a great family-friendly hike, particularly in the spring when the creeks have more water.  On my one trip to the area I forgot my memory card so the only pictures I have are cell phone pix.  I'll be back next year for sure though.

Weeping Wall Falls plunges 73' down a gorgeous moss and fern-lined cliff.  On my trip the volume was very low and the creek trickled gracefully down the cliff.  I suspect at higher water levels the waterfall is much less "weepy" so the name of this waterfall might end of changing.

DIRECTIONS - From Bottleneck Falls, continue along the trail for another .7 miles, passing Bald Eagle Falls in the process to Weeping Wall Falls.
