I don't know anything about this waterfall. The falls were to be the site of hydroelectric generation, but this was blocked by citizens' groups in the 2010s.
It is only visitable by paddling, and is surrounded by lands owned by heavy industry. Reaching the falls by water is a long trip; you can't simply put in at Hwy as it is a contolled access roar at this location. It would be a longer paddle upstream from Old Hwy 17. The roads that you see on the map are privately owned by industry.
