Gary Smith found this on one of his paddling adventures. At the time of writing in 2018, Google Maps showed its label for this falls to be about 700-800 m further north than the location that Gary marked with his GPS. This is a canoe-only access site. It's pretty, but the waterfalls is very, very small. It should be called a rapids.
I believe that you could paddle to this waterfall from the parking lot for the Western Uplands Backpacking Trail. This is right off Hwy 60. The driving directions lead to this location, for convenience.
