Moose Falls (height 30 feet (9.1 m)) is a plunge type waterfall on Crawfish Creek. The waterfall was named in 1885 by members of the Arnold Hague Geologic Survey for the plentiful moose found in the southern sections of the park. The falls are just 75 yards (69 m) west of south entrance road via an easy trail that begins 1.2 miles (1.9 km) north of the south entrance station. Source: Wikipedia
