| partners | | We were sort of in the area and I needed to check this one out.
The 4 mile long drive off of Rt 60 was accessible for any vehicle. But......
** Note ** Unless you have 4 x 4, Do NOT try to cross the creek to get to the TH. Park on the east side of the creek and walk across. You are going to get wet anyway. The creek is not deep, is covered in small rocks and looks easy to cross, but you WILL sink and get stuck. I read the Tibber/Snakemarks triplog were they got stuck and had to get towed and there was another non-4 x 4 Toyota that was stuck trying to get back across while we were there. Luckily Joe talked me into parking before crossing.
Now, the hike... We started about 2:30p and there were 7 or 8 vehicles at the TH, so we expected a crowd. Luckily for us, we passed everyone of them leaving, as we were going to the falls.
There are use trails for the majority of this hike on both sides, but why not just walk through the water.
The whole hike was real picturesque, but turning that corner and seeing the falls and that Blue water...BAM!. Quite the site... pictures do not do it justice. We cooled off for a bit and the made our way back to collect the truck.
A long drive out there, but something that needs to be seen.
