Drake Falls

Drake Falls is a pretty diminutive 27ft falls requiring the use of an overlooking viewing deck protruding from the cliff to get a view of it. You can find this one about 0.2 miles past the Middle North Falls turnoff. This is really just for waterfall collectors as there's still two more waterfalls another 0.2 miles further downstream.

Directions: We started the hike that encompassed this waterfall from the Winter Falls trail. It's about a mile or so walk from the trailhead to the falls.
