Lower Falls Creek Falls
Since Catrina and I made a pact that we would hike every weekend, regardless that we went to the beach the day before, we got up the next day and picked a spot to hike. Lower Falls Creek which is located in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest a little less than an hour drive from here. BEAUTIFUL!! All the websites we saw about the trail said that it was moderate to easy.....my ass!! The way to the falls is almost all uphill, so it's a rough start, but once at the falls - totally worth the 2 mile hike. We kept passing people who were on their way out, and they looked happy, easy going, and not sweaty messes like us. Well, we knew why once we got there. The falls are so close to the "look out" area that there is a constant mist of cool water and air. SOOO refreshing. We sat and ate a snack, had some water, did some exploring and cooled off. The hike out was EASY! No wonder people were looking so great! It's all downhill.
