With all the rain lately, Andy asked if I wanted to go check out some waterfalls and of course I was game. We wanted an area without the crowds so we skipped the regular stuff and headed over to the Hiero. TH. Parking lot was packed even with the light drizzle when we arrived, I saw numerous people wearing tennis shoes with no water; I'll never understand it. Anyway's we jumped on Lost Goldmine for a minute, then jumped the fence to sync up with the trail to Chuparosa Canyon. A good size herd of steers at this spot, some on the other side of the fence, but they gave us no trouble. The trail is in outstanding shape all the way to the point that we stopped at the first fall. It's better then most eastern Supes trails at this point.

Spent some time at the falls which had a really nice flow. The fog got thicker and the rain started again so instead of continuing on up the canyon, we packed it up and headed back down. Uneventful hike back down as the sun started coming out about half way down. My first time up in this canyon and I would definately like to return when the falls are flowing and the sun is out. Thanks Andy for the invite.
