What a ride! I had so much fun on this hike. The upper waterfall far exceeded my expectations. The momentum of the hike just keeps building as the canyon gets steeper. The waterfalls just keep coming! My 8-inch Gore-Tex Danner boots came in very handy while working my way along the creek. Keeping your feet dry is must in the winter. A single walking staff is a tremendous advantage in a canyon with water! I am not accustomed to standing below large waterfalls. The power, the sound, the wind, and the mist must be experienced in person to truly appreciate! Very cool... Although this is primarily a seasonal hike, I suspect that there is light perennial water flow in the upper canyon throughout the year due to thick vegetation and numerous large sycamore trees. This is a unique special location that not many know about.
