Small but sweet, Rushie Falls is a 15-foot waterfall on Rushie Branch near the eastern edge of Lake Russell WMA. It has a nice little pool, and the stairstepping ledges make for a good photo. Reaching the falls requires a low-level 0.25-mile bushwhack and rock hop up the creekbed from Red Root Road (FR 92).
