Favorite *remote* water spots (waterfall, pool), the further the better

Lots of posts about popular sites near a trailhead, or at least a modest walk. But...

Do folks have river spots/waterfalls/swimming holes that are completely inconvenient to get to? Like miles and miles of walking?

Points for being far from other attractive goals (e.g. 4K summits) and relatively private.

For an upcoming hike with the spouse, I'm hoping the Dry River Trail might offer such locations.

Edit: *Just* got the new AMC White Mountain Guide in the mail, and have identified a waterfall many miles in, with an "obscure" side trail that leads to an "interesting" pothole, possibly with a view. Mission accomplished.

Does anyone accept DKA to their floors?

I'm an ER doc. There has been discussion about starting a subcu insulin protocol for mild-moderate DKA.

Usually these are pretty much a guaranteed IV drip and admit to the step-down unit. However, apparently a few health systems have protocols for admission to a floor bed, prior to closing the gap. No ICU unless pH 7 or something.

Anyone doing this? Any observations to share about how it has gone? Or, conversely, how would you react to attempts to implement this at your place?
