| Nestled in a secret place along the Conasauga River lies Ball's Deep. First discovered by Clint, Mark, and Keith on a backpacking trip to Panther Creek Falls. It was thought to be just a nice spot to take a dip in the cold, clear North Georgia water. Only later did it become a favorite Dillo hiking destination in itself. It offers the maximum backpacking experience for the least amount of effort. You can do the walk very quickly and yet, once there, you could be a thousand miles away from civilization. When you return, a piece of Ball's Deep stays with you. | |||||

We did it! (With just a tiny bit of whining.)
Hmmmm. 'Bout time for one of them feeding frenzies. |
