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 […]

cascades on a tributary to Cunningham Creek

These series of cascades have their origin on the western slopes of Cunningham Gulch between King Solomon Mountain and Little Giant Peak, both of which are thirteeners (peaks over thirteen thousand feet). Taking the route along the east side of Cunningham Creek past the turnoff to Stony Pass south of Howardsville, you can get a […]

Uncompahgre River falls

These falls are just upriver (south) from Bear Creek Falls on the Million Dollar Highway, or highway 550, between Ouray and Silverton, not far south from Ouray. The falls pass through a rock tunnel beneath the Million Dollar highway as it is also known. The confluence of Red Mountain Creek with the Uncompahgre River is […]

Bear Creek Falls

This Bear Creek Falls is the one south of Telluride, Colorado. The falls are reached by a long hike on Bear Creek Trail with steep elevation gain. Views can be had of the San Sophia range to the north from the trail and some cascades on a tributary to Bear Creek to the east. Some […]

falls north of Coal Bank Pass from highway 550

These falls are visible from the highway on a very sharp curve north of Coal Bank Pass. Whether they are on Coal Creek or Deer Creek; not certain which, but definitely one or the other. As a side note, if you were to follow Coal Creek on downstream to Lime Creek Canyon road from this […]

waterfall on the Animas River at the Mayflower Mill overlook

The viewing site makes for a very scenic location with a view of the falls, the Animas River, the Mayflower Mill, surrounding mountains, the canyon, and overlook all from the same location. Two miles east of Silverton on the south side of the road find the large parking area with path and descriptive placard on […]

Bear Creek Falls

Bear Creek Falls is the last waterfall you will see before passing through the tunnel on the Million Dollar Highway driving from SIlverton to Ouray. The highway and bridge pass over the falls as shown in the photo as viewed from the viewing platform with parking area and pulloff just beyond the falls. The viewing […]

Niagara Gulch Falls

Nigara Gulch Falls can also be seen nearby the ghost town site of Eureka, an eight mile drive east from the narrow gauge railroad destination town of Silverton Colorado. Niagara Gulch Falls viewing point west of the Animas River nearby the Sunnyside Mill site is best for views of the tallest drop in the waterfall. […]

Mountaineer Creek Falls

Mountaineer Creek Falls on Mountaineer Creek is the last waterfall to see on the road up to Highland Mary trailhead. For the last mile of this road up from the BLM campsites along Cunningham Creek you would likely need a four wheel drive vehicle as the roadway becomes very steep. Or you could choose to […]

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 […]

Kinuseo Falls

Tumbler Ridge is an interesting little town with a UNESCO Geopark. It’s home to some fascinating rock formations and a history of dinosaurs. This region also seems pretty interesting when it comes to waterfalls, with tons (dozens, perhaps) of developed trails leading to places like Bergeron Falls, the Monkman Cascades, and Nesbitt’s Knee Falls. Alas, […]

falls on a tributary creek to East River Fork of the Gunnison River

These falls are flowing during the spring snowmelt high above Crested Butte, Colorado. Take the road to Emerald Lake from Crested Butte along the East River, a fork of the Gunnison River. Just before the road narrows on its last mile or two before the lake, these falls can be seen to the east below […]

waterfall on Imogene Creek at Camp Bird

This view of the falls was as close as I got to the waterfall on Camp Bird Road up from Ouray, Colorado. There appeared to be a route via private property and mining operations with closed gate to the area of what was once Camp Bird Mine from this viewing point. There also appears to […]

Upper Provo River Falls

Upper Provo River Falls may be viewed best by stopping at the Bridal Veil Falls Park in Provo Canyon east of Provo, Utah, then continuing through the park and upstream along the Provo River after viewing Bridal Veil Falls, the main attraction at the park. There are hiking trails, picnic tables, restrooms, and other facilities […]

Staubbachfalle

These falls are best viewed from a distance, though you may hike to their base. The area is known as the Valley of the Waterfalls. The Jungfrau may be seen up the valley from the falls. 0 CommentsOnly logged in users can post a comment (login at topright corner of your screen) Please login or […]

Lower Falls South Fork Mineral Creek

These pair of falls are reached from Mineral Campground by crossing Clear Creek and going upstream from its confluence with South Fork Mineral Creek. The shorter route is from the campground. The longer route is from the parking area east of the campground. The longer route is by going up the road and across the […]

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 […]

Waterfall Fishing- Exploring the Wonders of Fishing Near Waterfalls

Anglers venture to beautiful waterfalls, casting their lines into the clear, rushing waters to hook various fish species like rainbow trout, brook trout, brown trout, Smallmouth Bass, and Walleye. This method requires skill and a love for nature as you navigate […]
