Hike 0. | Hike 0.5 miles up the Bullen Hollow Trail. The Margarette Falls Trail is apparently the second blazed trail off of Bullen Hollow Trail (do not ford main creek). It takes the right fork of the creek and the falls are about 0.75 miles from Bullen Trail intersection with several fords on this trail. | ||
