  • Fall foliage
Nice colorful leaves!
Great little 4mi loop hike into history including the waterfall! I've included 3-4min of video highlights below. Our loop as I recall took the short trail sections in this order: Red Town -> Coal Creek -> Coal Creek Falls -> Quarry -> Indian -> Steam Hoist -> Rainbow -> Red Town -> trailhead There is one place with easily stepped over treefall near the Steam Hoist Trail junction (see photo), otherwise trail is in great shape! Big Leaf Maples showing nice yellow color this year.
