I have been to split rock falls. I am looking for some great places to swim within a 40-50 vicinity.

Accross the road from Split Rock falls and up stream there is a small jeep road that goes into the woods about 100-150 feet. There is a short walk to the river a very nice swimming hole and small waterfall. You won't get bothered by the crowds there. Also if you follow the North Fork of the Bouquet up stream along the trail you will come to a very nice and popular swimming hole. With a nice waterfall slide at the top.

re: spier falls
don't waste your time - what a nasty place. could be nice altho i'm not 100% on the water issue up there. but even so, the people who've been going there leave garbage all over; beer cans, broken glass, even several dirty diapers! it made me mad and sad - it's state property but no one must care about it. i wanted to write to the town of corinth and tell them they should be ashamed of themselves! a good day of clean up would make a world of difference.

Also: pkbagger: i'm not familiar with the place you are talking about. where is that? is it up near the daks? (i live down in albany)
