About 0.3 mile one way by the guide listing (easy bushwhack); the nearby road walk between falls is a separate, longer option
From Big Flat on Highway 14, go east 3.8 miles, turn left on Highway 341 (Push Mountain Road) for 2.3 miles, then left on gravel Rand Road (FR 1118). Park along the side of the road about 2.1 miles down Rand Road. Drop down the steep drainage and follow the creek to the 18 foot waterfall, which has worn a hole in the overhanging bluff like the larger Glory Hole. The area borders the Leatherwood Wilderness. Save the visit for after a good amount of rain.
