This waterfall appears to drop somewhere around 100' on Smith Creek.  The falls can be seen very distantly from just the right spot along the Heliotrope Ridge Trail.  Up close views appear to be very difficult to attain to say the least.  If a close view of the waterfall can be found, the rating will go up substantially.





DIRECTIONS - Follow the directions to Rock Gnome Falls.  Smith Creek Falls can be seen distantly about 1 mile down the trail near the first long plank walkway.  The view from there is barely worth it.
