A note about travel time and time zones: Mountain roads, trailheads and seasonal access can make driving distance very different from straight-line distance. Some waterfall trips—including Ozone Falls—cross into the Central Time Zone, which is one hour behind Piney Point. Open the current route before leaving, confirm local hours and allow extra daylight for unfamiliar roads.
