Alpine Waterfall slide/pool

This hike was in the city of Alpine, Utah passed the point of the mountain on I-15. You take the exit for          Mount Timpanogos. Follow that road till you get to an intersection that leads to Alpine which is on the left and it takes about 20 minutes to a parking area by the no trespassing sign. No cars can go through so because of this, it takes about 50 minutes to the trail which is about 5 minutes to the natural waterfall slide/pool. I did this with my lovely wife and my sweet Aja Gabriela back in early June. This is a fun one to down on and the last time I did it did a number on my butt.

Cecret Lake Waterfall-June 18th, 2013

This was a nice alpine lake I visited in Little Cottonwood Canyon outside of Salt Lake City, Utah. Now, this hike took longer than expected cause the actual trailhead for Cecret Lake is close for cars to park at so you have to hike about 40 minutes to that parking area/trailhead and at that point it takes 20 minutes. The trailhead/parking area opens in July from what I was told. I did not bring my tripod for any waterfall pictures cause I was not trying to find one however, I did come across one and was able to take some nice pictures considering I had no tripod with me. Enjoy!

Third time is the charm

E ai tche!! Well I am glad to say that this time I was able to see the main waterfall. I hiked to it with Keith this time. He is a very good high school friend, with whom I have hiked to most of the waterfalls with. This hike was probably the toughest in terms of how high you have to hike up to in order to see a waterfall. Even harder than Bells Canyon in Sandy. This waterfall had alot of water flowing in it and it was great to see something about 40 feet after a rough hike and some off hiking to get to it.

Davis Creek Waterfalls Part#1

Well I actually hiked to this one on tuesday June 14, 2011 and it was my friend Eldon and I's second attempt to find the main waterfall on the Davis Creek Trail. It was a tough one for the most part because the trail is hard to find and there are other man-made ones that people can get lost on. Also, it mostly is uphill and so on and so forth. These waterfalls we did find are two of the four or five. Great ones at that and we shall attempt it again I believe the first saturday of July.

Month of May Waterfalls

Well the month of May came by and passed rather quickly. I had intentions to check out numerous waterfalls, however, things do come up and my intentions are not always set in stone. I was grateful to see a few new ones on the same trip and that would be in Vernal and the other in Big Cottonwood Canyon in Salt Lake. The month of June promises to be a good month. I plan on seeing 7 new waterfalls in Pleiades Canyon near Moab and two small but nice waterfalls that are actual waterfall size. Also, I plan on hiking to some new ones near Farmington and Centerville next week!

Burnt Springs Waterfall

This long distance waterfall is certainly a runoff from the snowmelt and is located just .25 of a mile from the turn to Ely Creek Falls. Just continue down the trail and be sure to look to the left or you will miss it. Not impressive enough to bushwhack your way to it and I apologize for the lack of detail and it is due to the lack of a good stable spot for the tripod to rest. Nonetheless, here it is!

Ely Creek Falls and Cascade

I hiked to several new waterfalls and I am very glad I traveled this far to get to them. These are located outside of Vernal, Utah in the canyon to the northeast of the city. Including driving to the trailead from Magna and hiking to them I would say it took 4 and a half hours. Wow! I hiked up there with my good high school friend Eldon on the nice sunny day with scattered cloud cover and saw few if any on the trailhead. The trailhead is located at the Jones Hole Fish Hatchery.
