Managed
to
check
out
yet
another
waterfall
during
our
latest
trip,
and
while
Burney
Falls
wasn't
my
absolute
favorite,
it
was
extremely
impressive
up
close,
and
has
a
fun
little
hiking
loop
to
take
if
you
wanted
to.
Got
there
around
8:15AM,
and
I
HIGHLY
recommend
getting
there
as
early
as
possible!
We
found
a
parking
spot
up
close
to
the
Falls,
but
by
the
time
we
left
(around
9:45AM),
there
was
a
line
of
cars
waiting
to
get
in
that
stretched
BOTH
directions
on
the
main
road
in.
I'm
assuming
youre
wait
would
probably
be
around
a
half
hour
at
minimum,
if
there
was
even
space
to
park
to
begin
with
(no
idea
if
they
cap
the
amount
of
people
coming
in,
so
they
may
well
have
been
holding
people
until
others
left).
We
had
our
dogs
with
us,
which
unfortunately,
are
unable
to
go
down
to
the
Falls.
You
are
allowed
to
have
them
on
the
paved
lookout
platform
at
the
top,
but
we
were
told
the
only
other
spot
dogs
were
allowed
at
was
a
mile-ish
long
trail
down
closer
to
the
lake
by
some
campgrounds.
We
didn't
end
up
doing
that
trail,
and
one
of
our
group
was
fine
staying
with
the
dogs
while
we
went
down
to
the
Falls,
but
just
know
be
aware.
The
hike
down
was
pretty
cool,
as
you
have
a
view
through
the
trees
the
entire
time.
There
are
some
spots
with
stairs,
but
most
of
it
is
smooth
pavement.
There
are
some
fairly
steep
sections,
and
the
general
area
was
covered
in
mist
spray
from
the
Falls,
so
it
was
pretty
slick.
Definitely
don't
recommend
walking
down
in
flip-flops...
The
views
at
the
base
were
crazy!
The
noise
and
power
the
water
has
was
impressive
to
see
and
hear.
There
were
some
folks
taking
wedding
photos
down
at
the
bank
of
the
water,
which
is
a
bit
of
a
bummer
as
they
were
ruining
one
of
the
better
angles
you
could
take
photos
from.
The
path
away
from
the
Falls
followed
the
water
for
a
bit
before
coming
to
an
small
little
half-moon
shaped
bridge.
There
aren't
steps
up
and
down,
and
instead
it's
just
a
smooth
wood
deck,
so
considering
how
slick
it
was,
it
was
a
bit
tricky
getting
across
it.
It
also
felt
very
rickety
once
you
were
on
it,
haha.
From
there,
it
starts
heading
up
hill
at
a
decent
clip,
and
while
there
are
a
few
spots
to
see
the
Falls
from
here,
it's
mostly
covered
by
hillside
or
thick
tree
lines.
There
are
a
few
sets
of
steps
once
you
get
towards
the
top.
It
then
stays
fairly
level,
the
view
of
the
source
water
opening
up
once
you
get
past
the
Falls,
where
you
see
another,
much
sturdier
bridge
you
have
to
cross.
Once
you
cross
this,
it's
just
a
couple
hundred
feet
or
so
until
you're
back
to
the
start
viewing
area.
It
was
a
nice
little
scenic
hike,
and
was
mostly
shaded,
so
definitely
nice
and
cool.
As
mentioned
before,
there
are
some
other
areas
to
explore
there,
but
we
ended
up
just
checking
out
the
Falls
loop
and
then
leaving.
