Upper Brush Creek Falls |
It’s an easy, though rocky, ¼ mile hike from the picnic shelter to the falls. The trail at this point may have been a wagon road serving grist and woolen mills operating at the site from 1851 to 1909. From relatively flat sandstone ledges, you can explore the top of the upper falls that hosts numerous small drops.

And there’s a well-graded trail leading to the creek below the main falls. This trail is not the first one that you’ll come upon. Look for a second trail, which switches back at an abrupt angle to the left. It’s the easiest way down to creek level where you can explore the base of the falls.

ReplyDeleteA 1927 topo map shows that the trail along Brush Creek to the Bluestone was a railroad bed. Railroad shown on the map.
