Comments: Wonder Creek seems like a good outing for a winter's day. Upper Lancaster Falls at 200ft is the big highlight and getting into the water. Low lights: loose rock everywhere from the point you leave the trail to the time you get back. (Hence dropping a star from the rating.) R1 is especially bad. Expect to do a few nuisance rappels just to reach R1. R2 should be treated as a rebelay station. Fun day out, but not sure how often I'll be back. Beware poison oak on the approach. Some varmint had chewed most of the way through the anchor on R3.

Comment: Fun trip. Possible first trip down. No evidence of others up there. Big rap could use a set of bolts to make the rap shorter and more in the flow. Possible to use 200” rope and go DCR and land safely (less fun). Great day.
