Drive to Arboretum, then 30 min. drive inside forest, hike to entry of crater is anywhere from 2.5 to 5 hours depending on many factors including shoes, rain, stream water-level, knowing the short-cuts, experience and agility, etc. Inside the crater you can go further for about an hour to the very end / back wall where you'll find the waterfall in my other video. When it rains there are at least 17 high waterfalls, but it's much harder to high due to slippery gel-like mold on the river rocks.
