Seen from a far and a challenge to get too.This waterfall is a (kinda) hidden jewel in our area. Not only is this a strenuous hike but getting to it is a challenge too. Starting with a no trespassing sign and a locked gate, makes it a bit interesting. This beautiful waterfall is located in the Rainbow Ridge area in Mt. Shasta. The trail, mostly a very steep road goes to the falls. The last 1/4 is a little bit of a scramble with creek crossings. WILDFLOWERS COMING OUT!HERE ARE A FEW WILDFLOWERS AND SIGNS OF EARLY SUMMER SO FAR... I saw lots of these starting to come up. Larkspur is part of the Buttercup Family. It's scientific name Delphinium nuttallianum. I was hoping to see the yellow lady slippered orchid but a little too early yet. It looks this weeks weather will be warm temperatures, partly sunny, clouds, showers...sounds like Mt. Shasta!
