From the lot, look for an easy-to-spot trail beginning near a huge tree right outside the parking area (the tree is easy to sp...

Dropping off a 135 ft cliff is a very well hidden waterfall with no trails leading to it. But if you do find it, it is an epic natural wonder.It is best to come here in the winter months, after a lot of rain.
