This is really not the greatest waterfall to visit. It's hidden under an old railway bridge, and because of the topography, there are only limited photographic options. The old railway has been pulled up and the bridge is currently deemed unsafe (no crossing).
This site is coded yellow because the road, while passable, is pretty bumpy. Also, the site may be on private property, although I didn't see any signs. It is not crown land. However, when I visited, other cars and trucks were parked and I think the area is used as a boat launch.
Klock Road leads down to a clearing beside the abandoned rail right-of-way, where you can park. About 100 m to the east along the old railbed, the falls are visible.
A smaller rapids is found just upstream of the railway. Maps show that there are other small falls further upstream, but I am unaware of their size or accessibilty.
