    Tips

    July 3, 2023

    Chacos, Keens, or similar are best for hiking up to the falls.



    From trailhead to stream is uphill and dusty with scattered benches under trees. Navigating through the stream is short, but water is cold and watch for deep sections.

      Water fall is tucked in the rocks. Bring sandals in the summer, the water is ice cold.

        Definitely worth the hike. The waterfall is hidden between the rock walls, so water shoes are necessary.
