This is an enjoyable hike. The grade is moderate enough that you aren't huffing and puffing. The aspens are about 2 weeks from prime time. Both lower and upper waterfalls are nice, and access is right to the base of the upper waterfall.

Tip: the city park area allows for 4 hour parking, which is enough time to complete this hike with some to spare. You can hike along the San Miguel River trail for a little bit to connect.
