February 27, 2021Good loop trail weather pending. Only first half of trail has been frequented by hikers. We finished the loop and trudged knee deep in fresh snow.
February 24, 2021A great day on this loop. It had snowed the night before. I arrived at 8 am and was the first one in the parking lot and the first person around the loop. A lot of animal track in the snow, including one that had blood in it. The forest was really pretty with the snow. The amount of water coming over the falls is small but the cliff and surrounding cliffs plus a view across the valley are great. Crossing the creek coming off the bottom of the falls was difficult because you could not see where it was under the snow. I postholed twice up to the top of my thighs despite feeling ahead with my poles after the first time. With the snow, I used and highly recommend poles because a fair portion of the trail is on a steep side slope. I took microspikes but never used them, would have avoided a slip on the snow covered ice on the way down if I had, but not essential in fresh snow. Combined this with Skookum Flats to get a good day's worth of hiking in.
February 9, 2021Snow was everywhere! Not a lot, but it covered the ground. Be careful at the falls. It looks like all snow covered ground, but we stepped in snow covered water. Wasn't too bad though, just be careful. There are a few down trees that you have to crawl under or climb over, but nothing too difficult. Got to the trailhead at around 8:30 and we were the 2nd car there. Road leading to the trailhead was clear, but there was a tiny bit if snow in the parking lot.
February 7, 2021Great, blowdown and snow.
February 6, 2021Rainy and snainy at the top. Hardly anyone out today. No snow yet just ice at the falls. Great day to be out!
January 31, 2021January 31, 2021A great hike for a rainy winter day! We scrambled up the rocks at the falls a bit to get closer, and that was fun and beautiful!
January 31, 2021Very few people for a Sunday morning, not too challenging and a fun view at the waterfall!
January 30, 2021Some blowdowns that are challenging to navigate with a dog but we managed. Overall quick hike that gets your heart rate up. Falls were beautiful at the end and had some snow and ice that my dog loved. Would definitely do again. Kid friendly! Plenty of parking. Bathrooms were open. Can access with any vehicle. You likely won’t have cell phone service so download map if need be. Trail easy to follow for the most part, just follow the signs.
January 29, 2021Great hike with the kids. Small dusting of snow but easy to navigate. The falls was amazing! I would highly recommend.
January 27, 2021some snow and ice on trail. no tp at bathrooms
January 24, 2021January 23, 2021January 23, 2021January 16, 2021Loop was fun for a winter time hike. Creek crossing at the falls was sketchy
January 10, 2021January 3, 2021A bit snowy, nice.
December 29, 2020This is a great little trail. A good incline, a mixture of smooth and rocky, and nestled under the forest canopy. If you decide to scramble up closer to the falls, the mist has left a sheen of ice that makes traction elusive. Spikes are a must right now at the falls. There is a small snowfield to cross below the falls.
December 13, 2020Really nice little hike. Well marked trailhead with good parking and restrooms. Hiked up midweek in early December and didn’t see anyone else. Lots of switchbacks. A little bit of a scramble over rocks at the end of the trail. We didn’t make it to the end, but there’s a good view of the falls before you have to scramble and a nice falls that the trail actually passes through. Our 6 and 9 year old managed fine.
December 6, 2020Nice walk with pup. Lots of trees down.
November 27, 2020Pretty and easy. No snow 27 Nov 20.
