Had a little time before sunset to check out these falls. It was an easy trek, with a moderate descent on sandstone for almost a half mile, with a few slippery areas, followed by a flat, easy walk well above the creek to the top of the falls. Shoes with good traction are strongly recommended for that descent. From there, it's an easy scramble to the bottom of the falls. The falls were light but pretty, and the area was very green. We relaxed there for a few minutes, taking in the peaceful vibes, then ascended back out in time to make it to our dinner reservation at Hell's Backbone in Boulder, which was excellent. We saw only 2 other people on this route on Memorial Day weekend, so apparently early evening is the best time to go.
