| partners | | I covered some new ground in the Mazzies with John and Chumley Saturday. I was not sure what to expect, but the falls and hike down the canyon exceeded my expectations. I found the trail to be a pretty good too, however, that ascent will get one's attention.
The approach to the falls is not a gimmie due to the steep and relentless uphill nature of Park Trail. However, the hike and scramble down canyon was fun and engaging. There were several cascades along the way and some nice pools. We took a break at the confluence and them made our way to the main attractions. Both falls did not disappoint. The big one is a tad spooky to look over, but it has a nice ascetic despite its unphotogenic nature. The double falls are more user friendly and probably represented one of the nicest attractions of the day. After visiting the falls, we took the use trail back to the main trail and began the somewhat knee rattling descent back to our cars. We ran into a fellow HAZ user along the way, because of course you would run into another HAZ user in the bottom of a random canyon in the Mazzies. Great day out overall and perfect conditions, in spite of some heavy wind at times. It was nice to see John and his driver again. |
