Description
Very simple and short hike that leads to a number of waterfalls. Later in the season, you can walk down to the falls themselves without any issue due to the lower water levels. If it has been raining or it is early spring, the rocks at the falls themselves may be covered in moss and be a little slick for climbing. But the hike is still easy to accomplish.
