Florence Falls is a very powerful cascading waterfall located on the East Fork of the Miller River a little downstream from Lake Dorothy. The falls can be accessed from the Lake Dorothy Trail, but the trip involves some difficult and lengthy bushwhacking. Unfortunately, it's all but impossible to see more than one section of the falls at a time. The grand finale of the falls (shown below) is impressive in its own right. Luckily, that is also the easiest (relatively speaking) part of the cascades to see.
