Description

This is a popular hike due to the spectacular views across the Beaver Valley.  It's also a strenuous hike, so be prepared for some steep uphill climbing.  Your efforts will be amply rewarded by the many charms of this route, including a beautiful waterfall with a viewing platform, plenty of valley vistas, a babbling brook, and hopefully some vibrant fall colours.  Bring a snack and lots of water.  We will stop for refreshments at the waterfall.
