Falls Creek Falls

Post by Sugar Pine » March 8th, 2019, 1:24 pm

I'd love to snowshoe to Falls Creek Falls, but am uncertain about the ability to park along Wind River Road or on NF-3062. Has anyone tried Falls Creek Falls recently and have suggestions regarding parking? Thank you.

On Facebook someone said they had tried but the snow was too deep. Another person said they had driven past recently and hadn't seen any place to safely park.

I went by today, there is plenty of space to park now on the side of the road.

I went on March 12. There was room for several cars on the side of the road. We skiied in, but there was a packed trough from the snowshoers. It's about 2.5 miles up the road to the trailhead. We took off our skis and hiked from there, trail was well packed didn't need spikes or snowshoes. 9.4 miles round trip, 1000 ft eg.
