Switchback Our first glimpse
of the falls
Now we are
sweating
Exposed trail
above the gorge
Granite cliff near
top of Chilnualna
Falls 6,200ft
The blast of
Chilnualna Falls
View how it
looked in October
No way to cross
the falls this time

Looking  down
into the canyon
Leaving the
falls area
Hiking to the next
set  of cataracts
Totally
different look
We ran into
a little snow
Dampwood termite
Zootermopsis angusticollis
The last log
crossing
Homeward
