Bridal
Veil Falls is a very commonly used name for waterfalls but it is very fitting in this
case. The falls being by sliding down a 30' horsetail before spilling out and
fanning over another 50'. Below this the creek drops over another 10' segmented
drop. The bottom tier drops about 10' into a gorgeous, deep pool of water. The
area around the falls is beautiful with ferns and flowers everywhere you look. There
are a ton of good photographic compositions of this falls too so I'll definitely be
heading back with some better lighting in the future. The road leading to both Loomis Falls and Bridal Veil Falls is close every year until July 1st to protect elk habitat. |
| DIRECTIONS - Follow the directions to Loomis Falls. Turn left
onto FR 1260 and follow it to its end in around a mile. Park and walk across the
bridge over the South Fork. Hearty Creek is about 1/5 of a mile north of the bridge.
Make your way upstream however you can. The river is fairly easy to wade
through while the woods are very brushy. When you reach the creek you will see the
falls. Climb upstream next to the lower tier to get closer views of the top. NEARBY WATERFALLS - Loomis Falls |
