Trail Overview
From the north at mile marker 5 on Black Creek Road, there is a bridge and a parking lot that can hold about 12 vehicles. A short 150-foot walk from here leads to Leatherby Waterfall. Black Creek Road continues for another 6 miles, looping back to itself. After the waterfall, the road narrows and shifts to a mix of dirt, rock, gravel, and potholes, requiring slower travel. While two-wheel drive is generally sufficient, all-wheel drive is recommended. The loop finishes with a crossing over a rustic timber bridge.
