Mileage Mike went hiking September 27, 2015 10.6 miles 1,500 feet gained
It was quite crowded in the parking lot and so we decided to avoid the main trail to the Falls and loop around on the bike trail. We then visited the falls overlook, where a large group of hikers were admiring the view. We then continued on up the trail to the small Falls near a campsite. We met some hikers and took group pictures for them. We continue NE toward the horse camp and broke out into a swamp area where the lookout from Red Mt. could be seen. We turned around and then decided to visit Falls Creek Falls, hoping there wouldn't be many people there this late in the day, but plenty of people were still at the falls. Despite the crowd, Falls Creek Falls is nothing short of breathtaking! What a fantastic hiking day!
