Doing this trail in the midsummer heat was a bit rough but allowed for gorgeous views of the valley and waterfall!

I did this hike in early October and it was absolutely stunning and we even got a blanket of snow overnight which made for a beautiful hike out in the morning. The main problem I faced was the directions to find the trailhead which lies after mile marker 12 on the dirt road, not closer to mile 10. For anyone going in the future, both the parking area and the trailhead off of the logging road are not very visible. So make sure to park at the closed logging road about 12.3 miles up the dirt road and hike up that logging road until the trailhead is visible on the left side about 1 mile into the road. Other than that, you are good to go enjoy an amazing hike!
