The waterfall consists of two drops, with the largest at a height of 102 feet (31 m).

The waterfall and the creek which leads up to it are accessible by a trail maintained by the Forest Service.

[1] The waterfall is produced by Panther Creek approaching a cliff and then sharply making a turn.

Some of the water rushes too quickly and falls over the side prematurely at the bend, but the majority of the water follows the creek until it reaches a natural trough which then drops off.

At the dropoff, the horsetail begins the first tier of the waterfall, which drops 102 feet (31 m).
