Waterflow
Introduction[edit]
An aesthetic waterfall fall near Salt Lake with a short approach. The water flow can change from quite high in the spring to very low in the fall.
Approach[edit]
It's a short approach. Start at the parking lot, go up some wooden stairs, take a short walk past some houses to the actual trail head (no parking here), go up some more wooden stairs, walk a short distance on a rocky trail and you are basically at the bottom of the falls. From here scramble up a steep trail on the left of the falls a short distance until you can traverse back towards the falls. Then climb back down a short steep trail to the top of the falls.
Descent[edit]
Two rappels. The first is short and goes over two small drops. The second drops over the main falls. There are bolts and chain anchors at the top of both. There is a second two bolt anchor (no chains) that can be used for the main rappel (across from the chains) which would give you a slightly different decent path.
