A short steep climb from the BST up an old ATV trail to a beautiful waterfall, about 50 feet tall. Just to the side is a great clifftop viewpoint of Provo Canyon. The scramble just below the waterfall can get very steep with loose rocks.

Access Info

Best reached by starting at the Bridal Veil Falls Park (the one just down from the falls, not at the falls) and following the Bonneville Shoreline Trail.

This trail is unsanctioned.

This is an irrigation water source for several properties in northern Provo; please leave pipes and other infrastructure alone.

      This trail could use some work to clear some loose rocks. The route up top is incorrect, I will be updating it shortly. Would be miserable for...

      Bit sketchy climbing up. Not a bike trail, but a fun short and steep climb.
