After researching waterfalls and seeing this gem I had to go see it, being as I live not to far away in show low. I could not believe this waterfall was so close to the places I have been to so many times, Reservation lake, big lake, Mt. Baldy, etc. The drive in was great. My wife and I saw a Mexican grey wolf about halfway into the trip. She has never seen a wolf before, so it was exciting. We saw lots of wildlife such as deer, elk, turkey, and a little chipmunk that seemed to pose for us.

We arrived at the start of the hike and made our way down to the edge of the canyon. WOW, what a sight! With the view of the beautiful creek at the bottom, we made our way closer to the falls. You could hear them roaring and it was one of the best waterfalls I have ever seen in Arizona. I did not have the time to make my way down to the bottom to get that awesome picture I wanted so bad! I will be back. We sat by the falls and enjoyed the sight. I then snapped a quick photo with poor lighting :( I will be back soon to get to the bottom of the creek.

What a great trip for us!
