Hen Wallow Falls
Hike stats: M: 4.5 , EG: 900, R: MS
Hike Description: Almost from the start the trail begins to make a steady climb up the northern flank of Snake Den Mountain. While ascending the Gabes Mountain Trail, the roots and rocks will testify just how rough this route can be in some places. Although rugged, the trail passes through a beautiful lush-green forest of rhododendron and ferns, with eastern hemlocks and yellow poplars providing a nice overhead canopy. Hen Wallow Creek, which is only two feet wide at the top of the falls, fans out to 20 feet at the base. The waterfall is around 90 feet high.
Moderate hiking speed of 2-2.25 mph.
Carpool details: None. Meet at Crosby Campground
