Summary: This is a great hike for people of all ages. There are a few places where there are loose rocks, but most people in fair physical condition should be able to navigate this trail. The view of the waterfall and the valley makes it well worth it. As I mentioned in the trailhead section of this report, there are several trails to explore in this area, just about all of them are clearly marked. Note: some trails are specifically for hikers, others are for Mt. bikers. You may see people on bikes on the hiking trails, and most people don't seem to mind, but be aware on blind corners that there may be mt. bikers present. If you have a GPS unit and are interested in Geocaching, there are several caches in the area to find. If you are interested in attempting to locate some of these caches, or would like more information about Geocaching, go to: http://www.geocaching.com/ to learn more. If you have further questions, you cane-mail me at tsugihara@topproducer.com Trailhead: There are multiple trail heads in the area. The most common is at the top of 29th street. There is a parking lot, and the trail head is clearly marked. There are other trails in the area, but if you stay on the upper trail, it will take you to the waterfall trail. If you stay on the trail's by the river, it will take you right to it. The other common trail head is on the south side of Mt. Ogden park. There is also clearly marked trail heads from this location. If you look on the side of the mountain, you will see two copper/rust colored water tanks. The trail to the waterfall is about 40-50 yards above the tanks.

Reviewed by Iva on 6/27/2009 OK, I have tried to get to the waterfall 4 times this year. Every time I seem to lose the trail! I tried following the trail that corsses the creek several times, and ended up in the middle of nowhere. Help!!! 
Reviewed by Wassahapening on 6/11/2009 I have hiked Waterfall Canyon since I was a little girl and go each year, some years I go many times it is something that if you have not been you must go! People of all ages can make it. Go at your own pace and enjoy!
Reviewed by JJ on 5/29/2009 I've been up several times-I never tire of coming around a tree or over this rock to see the beautiful waterfall. I would recommend this to anyone who can spare a few hours and loves waterfalls.

Reviewed by Rory J on 4/29/2009 My wife and I hiked this trail last week with our 2 year old and 6 month old daughters on our backs. This trail is easy enough with the extra weight and is already clear of all snow. The destination (waterfall) is awesome, well worth the hike.
Reviewed by Bruce on 8/19/2008 You definitely want to go in June while the water is still high. The trail is pretty easy and makes for an awesome afternoon hike. If you want another nice hike, go left when the trail forks at the beginning. Right takes you to Waterfall Canyon and going left will take you to Taylor Canyon which is absolutely beautiful.
