Awesome experience! Specially after a decently steep hike down you come across this beach area where you can snack or just relax before making the last quarter mile to the waterfall.
Be wary though! MAKE SURE YOU USE THE CORRECT ENTRANCE....

Lots of fallen trees but overall trail was clear. Steady climbing ascent to pinnacle mountain with some stair climbs right before summit. From summit to ridge, very easy breezy, mosty flat. This is the more remote part of the hike so keep an eye out for wildlife. Connects back to table rock trail for a steep descent back to parking lot. Overall great ~4hr day hike if you stay on the move and keep a pace.

The trail was pretty wide and moderate for about 1.9 miles from red gate to end of the wide trail. Then the trail became difficult because it was narrow and switch back all way down through the gorge to the overlook deck for about 0.6 mile. There were two spur trails off the main trail to see two unnamed waterfalls so be careful to explore there due to slippery and steep.
