It's a blessing from God to have good friends, a beautiful day, a hike to a cave and a picnic by a stream. Inside the cave are a few narrow places, where you have to duck down or squeeze through. There are three caves you will pass through and Timpanogos is the best.

WATERFALL CANYON

29th STREET TRAILHEAD

Waterfall Canyon is a wonderful hike for all ages. I am so impressed by the huge waterfall that God made. 

We hiked to a spring, then made went around the Bonneville Shoreline trail to an overlook. This is a great place to take pictures of the Ogden valley. 

LUNCH BY THE FALLS

Climbing up Waterfall Canyon, we followed a bubbling stream. This part of the trail is shaded by bushes and trees. You'll be climbing up rocks and may need a hiking stick or pole. Make sure you "pack it out," and do not litter.
