Weeping Wall I guess the right conditions for this wall to weep impressively involves either being here when the snow rapidly melts (i.e. possibly late June or July depending on the snow pack and how warm the weather is) or in the midst of a downpour (hopefully the clouds wouldn't be blocking the views if that's the case). We were here in September 2010. So given this ephemeral characteristic, I'd argue this marginally counts as a major waterfall. Nonetheless, they did devote a pullout and signpost pointing out this wall so we gave it a little special treatment as a result. Meanwhile, further south from this wall, we saw a couple other cascades that had somewhat higher flow than the strands of the Weeping Wall. I don't think these waterfalls had names, but I recalled one was just under 5km further south on Hwy 93 while the other was a little further to the south than that. The first of these had a signpost pointing out Cirrus Mountain.
