Cherry Creek Falls — Sunday, Feb. 2, 2025

Arrived to the trailhead by 11:00am. Quite a few cars parked along the road, but only passed a handful of hikers along the trail.

The hike started beautifully snow covered, but not posing any added difficulty. There were two stream crossings - one very shallow and could cross using stones, and one more than ankle deep necessitating the need to cross a fallen log. Crossing the log in itself wasn’t bad, but due to the snow, there was a small layer of ice which made the crossing precarious at times (especially with two dogs accompanying us).

The falls were gorgeous! So much water flowing and definitely worth the hike there. We basically had it to ourselves, and it was a great group picture opportunity.

The hike out was a bit more muddy, since the snow was starting to melt, but really wasn’t bad.

I would definitely do this hike again. A pretty easy trail for big reward.
