Waterfall Info: Coming from the top, this is the first waterfall on Crenshaw Branch. While it's a pretty one, it's quite small and wouldn't be worth the effort by itself. It's certainly worth a stop on the way to Crenshaw Branch Falls though.
Landowner: Chattahoochee National Forest (Cohutta Wildlife Management Area)
Height: 10 Feet
Type: Sheer Cascade (Single-Tier)
County: Gilmer
Access Info: Easiest access is via Mountaintown Creek Trail from Buddy Cove Gap on FS 64. The falls will be to the right. Alternative access is available from the bottom from FS 241 via Bear Creek Trail (past Gennett Poplar), Pinhoti Trail, and Mountaintown Creek Trail, but it's a much longer and harder hike.
Waterfall Location: 34.853433, -84.540733
