Early afternoon hike along the McCloud River, from Lower Falls to Upper Falls, then back. My son and his wife, my daughter, and my sister used the hike to reflect on memories of my wife who passed on Memorial Day.

The pup and I where one of the first hikers on the trail. We did get the Middle Falls to ourselves. On our way back, Middle Falls was getting crowded, with more people on the way.

Finally made it to this popular waterfall destination in Northern California. The falls are heavily populated this time of year, but the Middle falls was a little more quiet since it requires a little hiking to reach. The falls are beautiful and there is plenty of (cold) water for swimming. Cliff jumping is very popular at these waterfalls!

Quick hike after work. Easy trail, well marked. Nice waterfall

The cool, crystal clear water was intoxicating.
