DIRECTIONS - Follow the
directions to Pitchfork Falls. Perry Creek
Trail passes right next to the top of the falls at about the 2 mile mark. To get a
clear view, cross Perry Creek and climb down the opposite bank to clear views near the
base of the falls. NEARBY WATERFALLS - Flatrock Falls, North Dickerman Falls, Pitchfork Falls |
Perry Creek drops over one of
the prettiest waterfalls along the Mountain Loop just below the Perry Creek
Trail. The waterfall begins with a beautiful 55' tall fan-shaped drop.
After a few cascades the creek then plunges 16' into a narrow chasm before
rolling out into the brush-covered stream at the bottom of Perry Creek
Valley. The entire area is surrounded by moss, ferns, and some rather
impressive cedar trees. If you hike the trail, it's definitely worth
the short, and relative easy, bushwhack down the hill to get a clear view of
the falls.
