Travertine Falls
Travertine Falls was a bit of an exercise in missed timing as you can see from the picture above. Apparently Spring Break was a little too late to experience this seasonal waterfall, which was…
Slide Rock
Slide Rock was one of those waterfalling excursions that probably stretched the definition of what a waterfall was in our experience. It was really a series of small cascades (the tallest one…
San Ysidro Falls
San Ysidro Falls was a waterfall that I had always been targeting for a visit, but for one reason or another (drought, lack of time, etc.), I never had the chance to make a visit until a…
Seven Falls
Seven Falls was perhaps the signature waterfall attraction of the Colorado Springs area. Like its name suggested, it was where South Cheyenne Creek fell a total of 181ft over a series of seven…
Helen Hunt Falls
Helen Hunt Falls was our introduction to the waterfalls in the Colorado Springs area, and it was quite easy to visit. It was essentially a modestly-sized two-segment cascade on North Cheyenne Creek…
Portrero John Falls
Portrero John Falls was a waterfall that had eluded us ever since we were first made aware of it in an old waterfall book from Chris Schaffer back around 2003 or 2004. After seeing this waterfall…
Fuller Mill Creek Falls
Fuller Mill Creek Falls was one of those obscure waterfalls that managed to elude us over the years. It even managed to elude us on our first attempt at visiting the falls back in 2011 though in…
Murray Canyon Falls (Seven Sisters Falls)
Murray Canyon Falls (also referred to as the Seven Sisters Falls) was more of an adventure for us given that it took quite a bit of effort to reach compared to some of the other waterfalling…
West Fork Falls
West Fork Falls was a bit of an unexpected waterfall for us as we weren’t aware of its existence when we planned for a recent Palm Springs trip in 2017. However, when we noticed this waterfall on…
Dana Point Waterfall
The Dana Point Waterfall was something we weren’t really made aware of until recently when it popped up on one of the Orange County blogs. Perhaps part of the reason why this place was so unknown…
Aliso Viejo Waterfall
The Aliso Viejo Waterfall was something that I would have never guessed would exist as it sat amidst a bustling and continually sprawling suburban area. Indeed, in well-developed cities like this…
Pearsony Falls and “Rogue Falls”
Pearsony Falls (I’ve also seen it spelled Pearsoney Falls) was kind of our last waterfalling throw-in after having visited the nearby duo of Mill Creek Falls and Barr Creek Falls. In fact, if it…
Duwee Falls
Duwee Falls was said to be Crater Lake National Park’s largest officially-named waterfall (the other two named falls in the park were Vidae Falls and Plaikni Falls; the latter we didn’t have time…
Natural Bridge on the Rogue River
The Natural Bridge on the Rogue River was something we stumbled upon while making the long drive from Medford to Crater Lake National Park. We certainly didn’t anticipate visiting this quirk…
Mill Creek Falls and Barr Creek Falls
With Mill Creek Falls and Barr Creek Falls, we were able to get a rare two-for-one waterfalling experience where both waterfalls were within a stone’s throw from each other yet each were quite…
Toketee Falls
Toketee Falls completely disarmed my parents and I when we first laid eyes on it. Even though it was modestly-sized at a reported cumulative height of 120ft (where the mostly hidden upper drop fell…
Diamond Creek Falls
Diamond Creek Falls was another one of those waterfalls that I had to wait years for after the first opportunity to see it in August 2009 resulted in disappointment stemming from a trail closure…
Stony Creek Falls (Middle Fork Falls)
Stony Creek Falls (also known as the Middle Fork Falls) had to have been one of the more remote waterfalls that we’ve done. In fact, if it’s solitude and that true sense of getting away from it all…
Webber Falls
Webber Falls seemed to be a somewhat little known waterfall on the Little Truckee River north of Lake Tahoe. Although it had a two main plunges (an upper one of a reported 25ft tall and a more…
Kings Creek Falls
Kings Creek Falls was another one of Lassen Volcanic National Park’s well-known waterfalls that was quite popular amongst park visitors. Perhaps the signature feature about this falls was…
