Is there any swimming areas near the falls? Thanks.
A:
No, just splashing pools & of course the waterfall. Hike back to the river for swimming. Contact Buffalo River Outfitters & watch the river levels on their website. They are very helpful.
what canoe trip did you take to get you to the sign for the falls?
A:
Put in at Steele Creek and take out at Kyle's Landing. One small rapid past Jim's Bluff on river left you should see a small sign marked HIH and/or Falls. Easy to find on googlemaps.
does this trail get overgrown in weeds and poison ivy in warmer months? Would like to hike this in September if the weather is good.
A:
Might want to wait until late September when rain chances increase since the small creek that feeds the waterfall is very dependent on recent rainfall.
