Parking Lot / Trailhead

There are plenty of parking spots next to the water tower. The parking lot itself holds a couple of dozen cars but was full when I went and people were parking along the street. 

Trails

Follow “Machine Falls Loop” from the parking lot. The trails are well marked and well maintained. The hard part of this hike is going down and up a steep hill. There are staircases along the way to help you through the hardest parts.

Machine Falls

Machine Falls is a beautiful waterfall. The water depth depends on water flow, but it appears the water won’t hold more than knee-deep and still be navigable. Head up the ledge on the right for a better view but be careful! The ground is not stable!

Busby Falls

This picture is taken from above Busby Falls, but from the bottom, you can find the bottom of this waterfall easily. Be sure to check out both Machine Falls and Busby Falls when you are in the canyon!
