Lower Fall Creek Falls (u)
Rating: **

Access: trail (page 291)
USGS Map: Diamond Peak (1997 ns)
Edition: 1st

Update: This entry was found several decades ago while trying to navigate over snow covering the trail. Based upon reports from others having difficultly finding the drop, it's likely I wasn't even on the trail (but rather simply trekking along the canyon rim) when it was encountered.
