Tinling Falls occurs on a very small stream on the eastern side of the South Fork Valley.  The falls are almost impossible to view due to being on private property and a bunch of trees blocking the view.  This stream is really small too so it's not a huge loss but I'm still trying to get permission to get some better pictures.

I probably wouldn't even include this waterfall on the website but it is marked on most maps by name so at one point is was apparently a prominent feature in the area.

DIRECTIONS - Drive along Highway 9 and turn east onto Strand Road a mile or so south of the town of Van Zandt.   The falls are on private property almost straight ahead of where the road turns to the right.  You can see the bottom tier of the falls through the trees and a higher section from further down Strand Road.  I've knocked on the door a couple times to try to get closer to the falls but no one has been home.
