  2. Take Cottage Grove exit 174

    This road will have its own mileposts (road that veers left is FSR #17 to Spirit/Moon Falls)

There will be an "Upper/Lower" sign where the path splits between the two falls.


Rest facilities available back at Trestle Creek Falls.


Found this Blue-eyed Darner on the road just near the trail entrance. Kept trying
to get a better angle but he kept moving along with me to see what I was doing.
See all four wings?
