Hike Summary: Good trail, though there are some places where the water is sparse. You do a loop swiching from one trail to another, finally coming back to the parking area just outside of Tacoco. Wildcat falls was pretty, a series of four falls that fell about 70 feet. There was an old stone wall and a few graves, neither of which I have found any explanation for. Good trail.
