First hike in the Mazatzal Wilderness, hoped to make it to one of the campsites past the waterfall and spend the night, in defiance of the light rain in the forecast. Made it a bit past the waterfall before the rain started coming on and off, and decided to head back. As others have said, this trail is all uphill, but it is steady, and it is incredibly beautiful the other way, every switchback the view gets more awesome all the way up. Met Jacob along the way and exchanged good stories, was good to hear from someone who has spent a lot of time out there. Looking forward to going back on a clearer weekend.

Can hear the waterfall running but no flow over the trail. Pretty sure you could get some water with a bit of effort
