Visited Little River Falls:
Took the Martha Falls trail, which follows, then descends into Little River Canyon:
Panorama:
The shoreline is a mix, from walking across rocks and boulders to scrambling up short walls.
I got to see some kayakers, and we greeted each other, but the conversation was understandably short, as they were about to get busy.
Exited up a weakness in the canyon wall:
Hartline Ford in the backcountry. The river was flowing much higher than the last time I was there, and the places I'd walked before were all underwater.
So was my tailpipe, halfway across, and I backed up within seconds, as I was afraid the water would come in my doors. There was a bit of a sick feeling when I put it in reverse and the truck wouldn't move. That's what 4WD is for, though...
