 | Parking/Access Road Notes: |
At the main trailhead / kiosk a long 12 miles out Magalloway Road in Pittsburg. Magalloway Road is in good shape, the side road to the falls a little less so. High clearance could make it to the southern trailhead but I wouldn't recommend it for low clearance vehicles due to a grassy hump in the road. There is a pit toilet at the main trailhead which is amazingly clean for such a remote location. |

 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Starting from the southern trailhead (no signs), the trail takes an immediate left turn which isn't totally obvious. I wandered a bit further along a well worn trail until I hit the river before realizing my mistake. |

 | Comments: |
A short one mile loop which skirts the east branch of Dead Diamond River, passing by the impressive 40 ft. falls. From the kiosk, I walked the 0.4 mi. to the southern trailhead and started there. Pretty good flow in the falls. One steep section of climbing above them. |
