Flat even trail

Description

This well marked trail is close to but discreet from the Hyalite Creek Trail #427.

Make your way through moist coniferous forest with moss hanging on the trees. Occasionally as you go along the forest opens up and present huge views of the cliffs that surround the area. All the while you dip in and out along the creek.

Eventually, you arrive at the falls, where you'll find a large bench and easy access for kids to down to play in the water.

Grade A view.

Quick waterfall view just off of Hyalite Creek Trail. Called Grotto Falls (maybe a 0.25 mile hike off the trail, via a small side trail)
