Description
Crossing over Cedar Creek along the Cedar Falls Trail. Cedar Creek is a year round creek draining the valley between Aldrich Butte and Cedar Mountain. From this point, the creek flows downstream another 1000 feet before tumbling over the three-tiered Cedar Falls. Depending on the time of year this creek can be tricky to cross, however in mid-summer the small stream dries to a trickle.
At times of high water, you can head about 100 yards downstream and, past a large grand fir with an old growth Douglas-fir looming up the slope, cross on a mossy log that has been refurbished to provide better footing.
