Recommended changes for California Top 10 Waterfalls List
The first change I would suggest is moving Burney Falls to the top of the list. There are many reasons for this including Hiking upstream to see the springs that make the waterfal, hiking part of the PCT which runs thru this State Park, the lake to swim at the bottom of the creek, camping […]
Top 10 Northern California Waterfall List
Since you have a full state list and a Sputhern California List, How about a Northern California List and a Middle California List? This would allow you to include those great falls that didn’t make the state list. 1 CommentOnly logged in users can post a comment (login at topright corner of your screen) Please […]
Purpose for this list
I suspect you made this list because no southern California waterfall could make the whole state list. My guess is they woulld not even make the top 20 list (if theere was one) for the whole state. 1 CommentOnly logged in users can post a comment (login at topright corner of your screen) Please login […]
Another view of Rancheria
If you drive up the Kaiser Pass Road above Huntington a few miles, after the 2nd switchback there is a straight stretch with plenty of room to pull over. Here you will get a great view of the falls. It’s best seen via a telephoto lens picture or with binoculars. This shows a pretty good […]
The more they “develop” it, the worse it performs…
I have been a Gaia GPS user since the app was first launched (using it for wildland fire fighting) and continue to use it to this day (for hiking and boondocking). While the app still has utility, each update and upgrade has made it more difficult to use, bloated and buggy. Downloading maps has always […]
Grand Falls
Grand Falls, also known as the chocolate or muddy Niagara, are maybe the largest waterfall in Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, or the whole Colorado River Basin. But that’s only when they’re flowing at around their peak, which is in February or March, from the snowmelt which feeds the Little Colorado RIver at its source in […]
Suggestions for Limited Time
Hello Johnny, Thanks for the write ups. I will be in Bali a few weeks. I originally plan to visit Sekumpul, Banyumala and Ulun Danu Beratan Temple on the same day from Ubud. If I can only limit to two waterfall spots on the same day, which one will you recommend? Sekumpul with hidden falls […]
Cool waterfall indeed
Thanks to your website we explored this waterfall today. It is the beginning of July and because this past winter we had a lot of snow here on Mount Charleston area, all the waterfalls are still flowing! I would also like to mention that there is another waterfall just on the right of the Medium […]
Bailey Canyon is flowing nicely right now (4-30-23)!
Decided to invest a little time today on the off chance that BCF was flowing. As soon as we started on trail, we knew we were in luck, as the stream below the fall was flowing well. Sure enough, we got there and Bailey Canyon Falls was in business, despite no rain over the past […]

Nice story and photos of our Independence Trail
Very nice story and photos of the Independence Trail and Rush Creek Falls. Unfortunately, Flume 28 was completely destroyed in the Jones Fire in August of 2018. I was very disappointed to find that out, as I have lived in the area for over 50 years and enjoyed many hikes on the Independence Trail. I […]
Beautiful
I really enjoyed reading your story about your trip to Russian Gulch waterfall. I grew up in Mendocino and believe it or not I didn’t even know this waterfall existed until I was about 42 and had gone back to Mendocino as a visitor and overheard someone talking about this waterfall. WOW!! I also took […]

Kornsa Waterfall
Maybe a bit off topic, but during one of my visits to Iceland October 2022 I took a detour from the ring road to explore the Vatnsdalur valley where I a.o. passed mentioned waterfall. An interesting story behind the Kornsa estate, is that a major part of the book “Burial rites” by Australian author Hannah […]
Pacheco creek
Both left and right forks have very active waterfalls after heavy rains, but require getting feet wet 0 CommentsOnly logged in users can post a comment (login at topright corner of your screen) Please login or sign up to comment
Helicopter
Back in the 70’s, when I first considered going to these falls, I heard there was a helicopter you could take to save most of the elevation gain/loss. Not sure if that option is still available. 1 CommentOnly logged in users can post a comment (login at topright corner of your screen) Please login or […]

Falls
I just want to warn people not to try to climb these falls I watched a good friend fall to his death on 12/26/1976. He will always be missed he was only 24 years old. 1 CommentOnly logged in users can post a comment (login at topright corner of your screen) Please login or sign […]
History
I am deeply interested in the history, rather the pre-history, of Cumberland Falls, particularly the story of the falls and surrounding area before, during, and after its purchase by Coleman DuPont. His purchase of the land, we are told, precluded the building of an upriver dam. You see, there exists a documented history and a […]
Do NOT Try To See These Falls from the Kalihiwai River Bridge
I saw in a Facebook post that you are able to see at least one of these falls from the Kalihiwai River Bridge, and that you are able to park nearby and walk down to the bridge. First, there is no parking some 300 yards east of the Kalihiwai Bridge as the Facebook post says, […]
