Big Run Bogs and Falls: The waterfall in WV no one told you about.

If you want to visit a remote waterfall in a secluded mountain setting and you want it all to yourself make sure you save some time in your next getaway to visit Big Run Falls in Tucker County, West Virginia.

▬▬▬▬ Information ▬▬▬▬
Take the National Forest Road 18 turn off. Then take the first left after turning off(Canyon Rim Road). (Going straight instead of turning left takes you to the Olsen Fire Tower.) Bogs are on the right side and the falls are after the picnic area.
This trip is a little more adventurous than anything in the State Parks, if only because there are no state-provided aids like signs or trail markers to guide you. That said, it is still pretty easy to find and relatively safe to get to.
If you need a great place to stay I highly recommend the Golden Anchor Cabins. You really need to check out the amazing amenities they offer.

There is also a CCC overlook that has been forgotten and is covered up a bit. its location is right after the falls and is fun to find.

Right up from there close to Olson fire tower.

how do you access the falls?

[@4ChristAlone]

From Thomas, W.V., travel 6.5 miles south on US 219 to FR 18. Tucker County High School, (116 Mountain Lion Way, Hambleton, WV.) will be on your right at about 5.6 miles.
At 0.9 mi past the entrance to the high school, take left on FR 18. At just under 0.5 mi., at the intersection of FR 18 and FR 717, continue to the left on FR 18. (FR 717 will take you to a fire tower after about 2 miles and dead ends there.)

Travel 1.3 mi. to the place where the road crosses Big Run. Continue to a pull off area. There is a picnic table and camping area. Just down the road is a rock with an orage marking. You can enter the creek here which is at the top of the falls or continue down the road a bit further, where you will find another trail. I recommend you find this second trail, as it is much easier and the top trail is kind of dangerous. Also, it will bring you out at a more photo friendly spot and keep you from some rock hopping.
