This trail is named for the really cool little waterfall that you get to ride right across when you get about halfway through the trail. The first half of the trail is very scenic and unique, and mostly downhill or flat. But once you cross the Falls, be prepared to go uphill a fair amount. Some of the climbs are pretty steep and tall, and this is where the Black Diamond rating applies. You may find yourself walking some of the uphills, but the first half of the trail is totally worth it.
