Any waterfalls deep enough below to jump from?

I wouldn't jump from any of them. Hell, unless there has been a ton of rain, they aren't much of a waterfall either. More of a water trickle

You can jump, the landing may be tough

a few are 10-15' tall. Not much water in the pool at the bottm.

There is one larger waterfall on the primitive loop that I believe you can swim in the bottom portion. Hopefully someone else can verify because it is a long tough hike so I'd hate to send someone on a wild goose chase.

I'm not worried about what's coming from the top. More worried about what I'd be landing in

Maybe during very high rain. There is one with about 3' or so of water when I went in April. It's worth the hike. This weekend would be perfect, no bugs or other crawly things.

I used to hike Clark Creek all the time when I lived in BR and worked a sales route. I'd structure my day such that I'd end close to Clark Creek twice a month or so.

The closest thing to the Ozarks in the area (I now live near the Ozarks). Great hills, I do remember a great deal of ticks.

One cool thing - it's sort of a microclimate and typically noticably cooler than BR in the summer.

Have fun!
