  Beauty: 7.5
  Duration: 21 days after a significant rainfall
  Height 39 feet give or take 4 feet
  Biggest vertical drop 35 feet
  Number of drops 1
  Terrain: steep slopes with rock outcroppings
  route: I got there by heading downstream from the upper part of the Sycamore trail - it's not too hard to reach the top, but getting down to a good view is very steep. The terrain is a little easier if approached by following the creek up from the bottom of he Sycamore trail. There might be an easier approach from the west.

• Waterfall 1/4 mile east of Eagle Peak at (37.824948, -122.042835):
  Poor gps reception - coordinates may be unreliable
  
  Beauty: 6.5
  Duration: 45 days after a significant rainfall
  Height 12 feet
  Biggest vertical drop 10 feet
  Terrain: unofficial trail, some difficulties
  route: You can easily get almost in sight of it by following a meadow southwest along a ridge from where the Corduroy Hills trail switches from a fire road to a single track. But the last 100 feet to get a good view of the falls has some difficult terrain.
