Area Closed

Just a heads up this area is CLOSED! It is 'labeled' closed because it is closed. It has been since the 2013 floods. They are working on restoring the trail and are anticipating it being done soon, but no date has been established yet. It is closed for public safety, a few people have even been killed or injured from loose rock fall that all of that water loosened up. They are working on securing it and rebuilding the trail. The rangers have been regularly patrolling this area, even more so lately, because people blatantly ignore the signs and jump the fence anyway. They are tired of complaints and injuries and they WILL write you a ticket. The ticket is for trespassing and includes a fine of up to $1000 and a mandatory court appearance.

Closed until further notice

So sad to see the path was closed. Planned on shooting sunset and got there to find the trail closed with several signs about not trespassing. The area is beautiful though and you can partially see the waterfall from the road. It sounds like a few inexperienced climbers have tried climbing and have fallen to death and that is why the path is closed.

I Love Waterfalls

This path was so quick and easy to see a gorgeous waterfall. Right now, in January, the falls are partially iced over which is pretty incredible to see. And though the trail is labeled closed, you can see that many people go anyway. Just be careful with the slick ice.. it would be very easy to slip! Id wear crampons next time to be safer!
