Archangel Cascades
The Archangel Cascades are a series of cascades sheeting their way down the hard sandstone bedrock as the Left Fork North Creek continues to trickle its way further downstream. If you do the Subway hike (permits needed), you will certainly run into these sets of refreshing cascades. You will probably have to go up and down these cascades as part of your hike as well. They are located a few minutes before the mouth of the actual Subway itself. In case you don't know what the Subway is, it's a spectacular semi-technical slot canyon in the Kolob Terrace section of Zion National Park. This cascade is merely a side attraction to the funky formations that have made this slot somewhat famous amongst canyoneers. Trailhead access to either of the two ends of this excursion is via the Kolob Terrace Road, which branches north of the town of Virgin along State Highway 9. Tell us about your experience with this waterfall.
