December 29, 2020Always a great hike with fantastic views. Due to the season some trails were closed (ie. lower falls)
December 28, 2020November 29, 2020Muddy Down to the foot bridge but overall a nice walk
November 28, 2020November 14, 2020Beautiful trail, but alongside the road more than we would have liked.
November 10, 2020November 9, 2020November 8, 2020The trail was absolutely gorgeous on a sunny November SUNDAY. It is a moderate hike, and the views help especially when it comes to the stairs. the bridge was open when our group hiked through. If you are sun sensitive, definitely bring an umbrella- because there were no leaves on the trees the sun was quite intense and hot even though it was a fall day.
November 6, 2020October 25, 2020. Got there at 0800 parking lot was filling up from the upper falls area. I recommend parking your vehicle and hiking the trails down to see the other falls and beautiful foliage.
