Description
Ranger-led Hike - Winter Waterfalls along Melton Mill Branch on Saturday, January 28
Join our ranger for a moderate out-and-back hike of 2 miles along the Lilly Bridge Area trails to view two waterfalls; Upper and Lower Melton Mill Falls, as well as, scenic overlooks of the Clear Creek Gorge. Depending on weather and temperature conditions, the scenery can sometime include spectacular ice formations or a rushing flow of water, with both locations embraced by an abundant forest understory of evergreen rhododendron.
Participants should wear weather appropriate clothing, sturdy shoes or boots, and bring water and snacks. Hikers are also welcome to bring well-behaved dogs on a leash.
