  Beauty: 8
  Duration: 90 days after a significant rainfall
  Height 14 feet give or take 1 feet
  Biggest vertical drop 10 feet
  Terrain: streambed with some difficulties
  publicly owned land, but public access prohibited
  route: There's a crude trail along parts of the creek, but in some places I had to walk in the rocky creekbed. I assume it's impassible at high flows. The 'easy' place to start is marked by signs saying something like: Danger, closed area, $500 fine
