Hooker Falls, Waterfall in DuPont State Forest, North Carolina.
The twelve-foot-high cascade stretches across a wide rock formation, creating a natural pool at its base in the Little River.
Edmund Hooker established a mill at the base of the falls during the late 1800s, giving the location its current name instead of Mill Shoals Falls.
The waterfall appeared in the film Last of the Mohicans, where characters navigated canoes through its flowing waters.
The falls connect to a network of trails leading to Triple Falls, High Falls, and Bridal Veil Falls, forming a seven-mile waterfall hiking circuit.
The waterfall forms the fourth cascade along the Little River in DuPont State Forest, offering swimming opportunities in its deep basin.
