Boulder River — Sunday, Oct. 12, 2025

Lots of solitude in the rain today.

The road does have plenty of potholes, especially the last mile, but can be managed. We were the third car at 10:30, there were 8 cars when we left at 2:30.

We hiked briskly given the weather. Both waterfalls are nice but it is really the river that is most impressive. After the 2nd falls there is a lot more standing water and mud on the trail. All the stream crossing, also mostly after the 2nd waterfall, were fine. Plenty of interesting fungi to see. We saw only one person in the section after the 2nd waterfall, and really enjoyed the solitude with the rain and the roar of the river.
