Good to know
- Most falls carry the most water during the spring snowmelt; by late summer some are almost dry.
- For silky water in your photos: tripod and a long exposure, ideally under an overcast sky or in the shade.
- Rocks by the water are slippery – stay on the trails, even when the view from the edge is tempting.
