Approaching Otter Falls
Not much white stuff on the trail, but slick in some areas. The trail hugs the Taylor River for the first mile or so, before cutting further up the hillside into the forest. We initially missed the turn off for Otter falls, and ended up going to Big Creek Falls first. There is a pretty awesome looking swimming hole under these falls, which would be great in the summer. Heading back, we found an old sign and rock cairn marking the way up to Otter Falls. As far as we could tell, there isn't a real defined trail, but it's pretty easy to navigate up the hill to the falls given that there isn't much underbrush. Lipsy Lake was completely frozen over.
