A picturesque hike into a sunny canyon with a charming waterfall splashing down 30-40 feet into a shady creek pool. We'll do 8 creek crossings on a wide trail as we gain elevation. Half way into the hike the path narrows and snakes around a deepening canyon until Trail Canyon Falls comes into view on our right. There is a very steep, short rocky scramble to descend. There are ropes to hang onto as we descend to the base of the falls. The "crab walk" method works well. PLEASE BE SAFE!!! WE WILL HELP EACH OTHER DESCEND. There is an option to go to the top overlooking the falls which we'll discuss before the hike.
-DOGS ARE ALLOWED HERE ON LEASH, BUT PLEASE BE CAREFUL IF YOU ARE GOING ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE BASE OF THE FALLS.
-POISON OAK ALONG THE TRAIL, BUT AVOIDABLE.
-THE STREAMS ARE EASILY NAVIGABLE WITH BOULDER HOPPING USING POLES.

Please be advised that while we will do our best to look out for you we are all responsible for ourselves. Use good judgment, don't take off by your self, and let one of the leaders with walkie talkies know if you are splitting off.
