There are numerous waterfalls in Cleveland National Forest, but this one is for you if you like to avoid the crowds or if you have already done the more popular hikes. The best time to visit the secluded canyon is in spring when the snow is melting or in wet weather to have a better chance for a beautiful flowing waterfall.
