Middle Fork Tule River Falls
Middle Fork Tule River Falls is a short but sweet waterfall that you might notice as you drive the twisty Hwy 190 between Springville and Ponderosa in the Sequoia National Forest Tule River District. The scramble is fairly steep and primitive and it's easy to miss the trail taking you to the main falls. If you miss the spur and kept going, you'd end up at some unremarkable upper cascades. The scramble is only about 1/4-mile each way and shouldn't take too much time but scrambling is not for everyone and the short distance is only realized if you didn't get lost.
