Will start 7:30AM SHARP!This is a beautiful hike - it starts off paved and calm with a nice little stream running through it, but soon switches to an off-the-beaten-path adventure. Nice stream crossings as you journey along the bottom to Bear Canyon campground. If you just want to see Switzer Falls, turn left at the bottom of the trail.
Beautiful scenery, some rigorous crossings, and at times some irritating bugs. Bring water, lots of it, and a little snack to enjoy at the picnic benches that seem to appear out of nowhere at the campground.
General fee: An adventure pass is required to be displayed in vehicles when using the Forest for recreation purpose. For information about where to purchase day/multi-day/annual passes, please visit https://www.fs.usda.gov/.../r5/passes-permits/recreation/...
