On land owned by the city of Vallejo, used for its water supply. Access has been allowed three times a year on hikes arranged by Doris Klein and the Bay Area Ridge Trail Council. There is some hope that it may become a more public part of the Ridge Trail, but concerns over the water supply are likely to postpone that for quite a while. It apparently flows year round due to releases from Lake Frey. See also a photo from the 1920s

Can be reached only on the hikes described under Upper Green Valley Falls. There's a 40 foot spillway on a dam that looks from below like the upper half of the falls, but it's 100 feet upstream and not natural, so I don't consider it part of the falls.
