Description
Natural Dam, found in the town with the same name, is one of those easy access, roadside attractions. A 200 foot wide natural ledge runs across Mountain Fork Creek, creating this wonderful waterfall site. When William Larrimore discovered the falls during a hunting trip in 1819, he found a perfect reservoir for a grist mill. One of the earliest settlements in Crawford County, Larrimore also set up a church camp, which attracted settlers from all around the county. By 1838, Natural Dam had a store and post office
