Super beautiful winter hike!! The hike is next to a river and a waterfall view at the end. It’s around 2hr around trip with stops of taking photos. Very easy hike with mild elevation ( can be a-bit of slippery coming down). Parking ticket is required but can be purchased at the parking lot.

What a great fall hike. It’s pretty easy 2 mile round trip hike. The trail wasn’t too busy but saw kids and dog walkers. The road is still clear of snow as of now. Google says the road is closed but it’s actually open. You can’t really ask for a better hike with such great reward at the end. Highly recommend.

This was a uni1ue experience hiking this trail with a temperature below zero. I loved it! It was SO cold that even my eyelashes froze. I took my gloves off to take some pictures, and the cold hurt so much, but still a fun experience. You will need a winter permit to park by the road here!

Mesmerizing waterfall with snow everywhere. Hike to the waterfall is easy but snow made it somewhat hard and tiring. Had to park almost 2.5 miles before trailhead which added nearly 5 miles roundtrip walking distance.
