Whitewater Falls Sign

Hey, you don't have to tell me twice! This shot was taken in 2006. I've been back but have not checked the sign to see if the number (15) has changed since.

From Wikipedia, Whitewater Falls is a series of waterfalls and cascades on the Whitewater River in North Carolina and South Carolina. Over the 3.5 mi (5.6 km) course of the river between the two falls, the Whitewater River drops 1,500 ft (460 m), and crosses the state border. Both Falls can be hiked to via the Foothills Trail or spur trails. Lookouts allow you to view both falls.
