Acrylic Fridge Magnet Fashioned as Douglas Falls in West Virginia

Situated in the Buncombe County in North Carolina, USA, the Douglas Falls is a magnificent sixty-foot waterfall that mesmerizes all its visitors. The falls are located on a stream of the Waterfall Creek that drains into the Ivy River. The Douglas Falls are enclosed by a huge forest full of Eastern Hemlock trees. Visitors touring the waterfall should take care while walking in the forest as the Hemlock are dead and have the tendency to fall down. You can have a little piece of this fascinating waterfall too in the form of the acrylic fridge magnet shown above.
