Howard Falls
Howards Falls
!
I assume Howard Falls is the rapid below the dam remains you can see from the North Howard Mill Road bridge over Deep River.
Unless you’re paddling the river or working on a checklist of all named waterfalls on it, I recommend skipping this one. The view from the bridge is unsafe.
For information about Deep River in general, including a table listing all the waterfalls on the river, visit the River Basins & Rivers page and click on the Cape Fear River Basin tab.

View from bridge.
Detailed Look
It’s not safe walking on bridge. Better to ride in the passenger car of a slow-moving vehicle.
