Overview. This is one of two cascades on the north end of Crawford Notch. Of the two, this one is a little nicer thanks to a gorgeous view of Mt. Willard above. Again, this was a low flow visit, but after big rains, this little walk is pretty amazing!

Parking. Limited roadside parking is available across from the trailhead on the west side of US-302.

Trail Navigation. Locate the trailhead across the road and just to your left (north). Walk up the rock or side trail and enjoy the cascades along with a nice view of Mt. Willard.

HIKER NOTE - Low Flow. We visited during a low flow period, but ideally, hit this during a multi-day soaker or immediately after a heavy rain storm.

CAUTION - Be Bear Aware. Black bear are plentiful in the region. Know Before You Go => US Forest Service Black Bear Safety Tips

CAUTION - Moose. Be aware and never approach moose. Leave a wide berth and turn back if needed.
