Well, Flume is at the top of Lark on the west side of town. Go to the top of lark and youll see a house with a fence around it.... go around it and youll find a trail. Its a great trail, it follows a small stream and towards the end theres a small, 10-20 ft. waterfall. As for the Acorn trail, it starts at the very top of Acorn Road. Keep in mind you wont be able to park :-)

Yippee! I love finding new trails especially those with waterfalls! Has anyone ever seen the one on the Manzanita Trail in good years? It's awesome! Thanks, Chris. Good topic you started. :D

Hey, I recently went on the lightning ridge trail (across from inspiration point).  The oak leaves and the less traveled trail were beautiful.  The view has been extra nice.  There is also a nice little nature trail near the gate to Table Mountain, it has a fallen tree, but we have been going around it for years.  Another less traveled pretty trail.
