High Falls Creek Map

High Falls creek is a hike not to be taken lightly. The trail hugs the top of the canyon most of the way up. Its tempting to want to look over the edge but you a potentially risking a fall to severe injuries potentially death. Once you get to the first view point you get a good view of the falls, its obstructed a little by tress. A little higher up you get an incredible view back over the squamish valley. Well worth the hike
