About this place

Added by Joshua Contois

Follow Big Creek to Mouse Creek Falls, a 45-foot waterfall. Smaller cascades and a swimming hole are along the route to this waterfall.

Follow Big Creek Trail on a moderate climb to this 45-foot waterfall. Around 1.3 miles in, you will begin to hike alongside Big Creek, and shortly afterwards you will pass Midnight Hole, a particularly deep pool. There are a number of other small falls en route. In spring you should see a number of wildflowers, too.

The side trail to Mouse Creek Falls appears about 2 miles into the hike. The area around the falls is a great spot to have a picnic before heading back to the trailhead.

Dogs are not permitted on this adventure.
