Same. I love being down in it at high flows when all you can hear is the rumbling echoeing white noise of the falls.

It's the only stretch of the Trinity I haven't boated. But I have been hiking down into to fish the falls since I was a kid. And after the things I've seen there... I'm a hard NO on ever boating it. But nothing for respect for the folks that do.

Love the Trinity as well. It saved me and I will forever be indebted. And thanks.

Thanks. NorCal is home and gas is expensive so I mainly just take local pics. I'm new'ish to posting/sharing stuff. It's been a good way for me to get some feedback on pics.

The good ol' BRG🤣. So you know that place? It doesn't get snow down to the river here very often. I just ended up getting lucky with my timing.

And yeah, hella rough country. Steep and brushy with rattlesnakes, tics, faceflies, Bigfoot, mountain lions, etc. to contend with. It's one of my favorite places on earth!

Monument Peak is dead center and also barely visible unless you zoom in.

Yeah...but it's barely visible even if you zoom in. It's about 65 miles away.

Looking north from outside the Wilderness near Weaverville. Mt. Shasta in distance on right side, Weaver Bally in the center, Twin Sisters (etc.) on left hand side.
