Hanes Hole Falls

Hanes Hole Falls is a small, angular falls with a large plunge pool on Big Fiery Gizzard Creek, on the Grundy Forest Day Loop at the north end of the Fiery Gizzard Trail. From the trailhead beside the restroom building, the trail forks within a couple hundred feet; turn left to hike the loop clockwise. The trail drops into the gorge of Little Fiery Gizzard Creek, passes Blue Hole Falls at 0.6 miles and reaches a steel bridge and trail junction at 0.75 miles. Stay right on the Day Loop. The trail then heads upstream with Big Fiery Gizzard Creek below on the left and reaches Hanes Hole Falls at 1.1 miles. The trail stays well above the falls, which are seen through gaps in the trees. Past the falls, the loop climbs out of the gorge and returns along the rim. White diamonds mark the trail.
