Peek-A-Boo Creek flows out of the lake of the same name and immediately dumps over a massive cliff in a secluded waterfall. The falls are divided into two main sections. The upper section is a weird, s-shaped horsetail around 120' tall. From there the creek runs over boulders for about 50' and then drops over two back-to-back 40' drops. Below this lower section are several more 5-10' drops bringing the total height to around 220'. It doesn't appear to be possible to see both sections at the same time and the waterfall is not horribly impressive. The cliffs around the falls are massive and some very large trees are passed on the way into the falls so the trip has a lot going for it even if the falls are a little disappointing.
