Geocache Description:

Come prepared to take about a 3 mile hike, round trip, with a considerable elevation change.Park at the Horse Creek parking area, and take the Squibb Creek Trail

Ahh, another DM Adventure ! This one isn't as strenuous as some others (must be getting old).

Decided to hunt a new-to-me waterfall. This trail has been calling for a while now for me to come explore, so having a chance I loaded up the pack and took the challenge.

Hiking is over lots of rocks and boulders along a small creek.
Bring your waterproof boots, there are 7 creek crossings on the way, most you can hop the rocks across, but come prepared. Hiking wise, count on a little over a mile.

Elevation on the first 1/2 mile is gradual, climbing only 300ft or so. The last 1/2 mile gets a little steeper, but still not bad.
Elevation gain is approx 700' over 1.5 miles, not bad really.
