Stevensons Falls Walk

Stevensons Falls Walk
Elevation: 2000'
Length: 6 miles round trip to waterfall
Season: Early season (Feb-April), try to time the wildflowers
Road type: Paved
Driving time: 1.5hrs
Description: Park at the fire road and hike along the edison road about 3 miles to a large waterfall.  Water amount is variable as Stevensons Creek is dammed by the Shaver Dam.  Hike is hilly but paved.  Can take bikes instead of walking if so desired.  Hot, so go early season.
