of the falls can't be seen from the trail and a short bushwhack is required to view
it. The easiest way is just to walk straight up the creek. NEARBY WATERFALLS - Austin Creek Falls, Prospector Falls, Trataka Falls, Tyler Falls, Wildwood Cascades |

During the summer, the
small stream which contains this waterfall is very small in volume but I've never seen it
run dry. When I visited the falls it was at about as high of a water level as it
ever gets and it was very impressive. The falls begins with a straight plunge
around 50' tall. Immediately below that is a segmented horsetail drop around 30'
tall followed by several smaller drops. In all the falls total just over 100' in
height. Getting a clear view of the falls is extremely tough and pictures are almost
impossible to get thanks to the vast amount of small trees and brush around the
creek. I named the falls after nearby Reveille Island.
