Itinerary description
I would imagine this place being quite popular during prime time season. The water is refreshing.
Following an unmarked path around the rock it is possible to reach the top of the falls thereby avoiding the vertical climb. The course is strenuous, a bit rough, and the navigation can be disorienting. This natural area is delicate and subject to damage. It is possible for an amateur (like me) do descend the vertical fall if careful but a tad risky. Not for the faint of heart.
Tips:
wet rock is slippery -- don't get hurt.
