We hoped in vain that we could hike to the falls without getting to the trailhead.
My son and I made an initial trip into mild elevations to see what the early hiking season had in store. The falls can't be much over about 2500 feet (northern aspect though). We got within about a mile of the trailhead of the Goat Creek Trail. Our goal was Cathedral Falls. Snowshoes might have been helpful, but the trail would have been very dangerous about 100 feet in the approach to the falls themselves. I would say that we have 3 to 4 weeks before the trailhead will be accessible by my Elantra and we can gain access to the falls themselves. The second photo is from a trip we took to the falls on May 27th, 2007.
