Getting there
For the Bassett Brook Falls-South Branch drainage specifically, use the mapped coordinates rather than a named trailhead. Approach on the Adams side of the Hoosac Range near the mapped coordinates. Parking is informal roadside; the cascade is a short, steep bushwhack from the shoulder.
