Located in [[Clarks Creek]]. Forest Service Trail #115. It's a great introductory hike for those who don't like hiking, small kids, can't hike far, or just getting started. The hike is short along a very remote setting with a great payoff at the end. | Located in [[Clarks Creek Recreation Area]]. Forest Service Trail #115.

Fairly well worn path with some rocks. Great hike for those new to hiking. It feels remote, fairly easy, short, and a great payoff at the end for the falls. The one stream crossing has flat rocks nicely positioned for a dry crossing | Fairly well worn path with some rocks. Great hike for those new to hiking.
