Lower Falls

Lower Falls





Lower Falls is the overlooked neighbor to
Rainbow Falls as visitors often don't even bother with this falls or know it's there. This waterfall isn't even within the Devils Postpile National Monument boundaries (technically in the Ansel Adams Wilderness), which further confirms its treatment as a forgotten or overlooked attraction.

Still, you don't have to concern yourself with reserve jurisdictions upon a visit to this waterfall. You only need to walk an additional 1/2-mile or so from Rainbow Falls to this little year-round waterfall on the San Joaquin River.

When I saw this waterfall back in September 2001, there were a few people chillin' at the top of the falls and an angler trying his luck at the base of the falls. It contrasted with the hordes of visitors frolicking at the base of Rainbow Falls and was indeed peaceful.
