- Ground & access
- Overgrown road trace, thickets, fallen trees, rocky ground and an unmarked descent. Reaching the base requires a steep-bank scramble, and the return is uphill. This is a navigation-dependent wilderness route.
Lost in the Ozarks documents an old road trace descending from a pull-off toward Hamilton Falls. The trace fades into off-trail terrain. Its author warns against following the small tributary all the way down because it ends at an impassable bluff; the described approach crosses it farther upstream.
