This listing appears to be the unnamed 15-foot falls just off the Old Bark Trail in Loyalsock State Forest, near Hillsgrove; published descriptions do not use the name Old Bark Falls. From the Dry Run Falls pull-off, walk down the road and turn right onto the Old Bark Trail, a yellow-blazed old forest road. The falls are on the creek to the left, off the trail. Leave the trail and walk up the creek to reach them. Return the same way.
