This isn’t a destination waterfall, but it’s a decent one to plan your route for since it’s right beside the road. You don’t even have to get out of your car to see the upper section.
See “Naming” for an explanation of how I designate unnamed waterfalls.
The top cascading section of Clark Creek F1 that is right beside the road. (031F-262353)
