Gorgeous Destination Hike
I happened upon this hike a few years ago and have been back several times in both winter and summer months, and it never disappoints. While the hike itself is uneventful for the most part - part of the trail is on private land and a good portion is an old logging road - the final descent into the canyon is beautiful with hemlocks all around, with the reward of the gorgeous Upper Falls. Feels otherworldly almost. Definitely recommend hiking down to the lower falls. Love this hike!
Loved It
This was a great hike. The water by the waterfall was very clear & beautiful, and the water was flowing even in the winter. There is a lower waterfall if you follow the stream about 1 - 1.5 miles down that is also worth exploring!
