Just. Look. AT THIS PICTURE. You really can't beat Tennessee, but during autumn? Well, then you REALLY can't beat Tennessee. Twin Falls is not actually a natural waterfall, but was instead created as a byproduct after construction of the dam on the Caney Fork River. Doesn't mean it can't be stunning as all get out, though!
