Stiles Falls (don't ask where the name came from) is a pretty little hike in the southern part of central VA. When Marlena and Anthony suggested it, and told me the waterfall was beautiful and easy to access, I was instantly sold. We met at 6:30 a.m. and hiked the trail in the dark. Stiles Falls lived up to the hype, and I'm so happy I got to spending the morning boulder hopping and enjoying the early morning light with Marlena and Anthony!
