Post by jkern15674 »

Has anyone bushwacked up to the top of reavis falls? Or downstream through the creek?

Climb up the left (east) side but keep in mind that you may slide down one foot for every two feet you climb up. One lady I know climbed a tree on the right side and slithered off onto the upper ledge. I wouldn't try that myself and I don't know if the tree she used is even standing anymore.

You can also hike down the drainage that starts just north of the old corral alongside the Reavis Trail. This will take you to the top side of the falls. Its pretty country upstream of the falls but be careful as almost nobody hikes that part of the canyon.
