DIRECTIONS - From the end of Miller River Road, begin hiking the Lake Dorothy Trail. After reaching the lake continue along to the inlet on the opposite end of the lake. Before fording the river, look for a bootpath on the left side of the trail on the other side of a large log. Follow this for about ¼ of a mile to the falls.

Lower Twist Falls is a beautiful little waterfall located just upstream from the inlet of Lake Dorothy and just downstream from Twist Falls. The East Fork of the Miller River turns a 90-degree left-hand corner and tumbles 36’ into a large pool of water. When I went the creek was at very high volume and the lighting was atrocious, but I have seen pictures in better conditions and this is a gorgeous waterfall at lower volume.
