Standing 18-feet tall and spanning the width of Crooked Fork Creek, a tributary to Emory River on the Cumberland Plateau of Tennessee, Upper Potter’s Falls has a rope swing which is popular during summer months among local youth.

To more fully appreciate the volume of water present, I’ve provided the following photograph of the same waterfall, taken in July 2020. Note: herein, I’ve edited (erased) the rope swing –

WOW, my goodness. I suppose this is more water than usual in order to have a rope swing on that limb. The rushing of that water makes you feel small in comparison, and I give mad respect to mother nature! Thanks for sharing this Phil!!! 😮🌅🌊🏞💖📷
Thanks, Kym. Indeed, this volume of water would spell big trouble for anyone in the river – except for an old man cautiously wading between rocks near the shore, searching for a better view. 📷😂 Have a great week, my friend! 🤗🌹
LMBO 🤣😅😂😆😁, Now, I wonder who this “so-called” old man is??? 🤔 Forever young Phil…forever young!!! 😎

Wow that’s a lot of water! I wouldn’t want to be swept away by that volume.
Yes, it certainly would be difficult to escape such forceful currents. Wishing you a wonderful day, my friend. 🤗🌹
Wow! That is raging! From scenic to fierce. Watch your step.
No doubt about it, some serious power at play and in stark contrast to my previous, otherwise peaceful visit. It’s nice to see you in my neck of the woods, your visit of which buoys my spirits as I greet the day! Thank you, lovely desert rose. 🌞🌹
