Nov 27      San Carlos Falls      Very Medium       4 hours for 4 mile

Nov 20      Cetti Falls       Very Difficult       3 hours for 1.5 miles
We descend into the Cetti Valley and then climb up all 7 waterfalls. This is a great hike that is rated very difficult and requires good upper body strength to complete because of the long rope climbs up (one of about 80 feet), which also adds an extra element of risk that can't be ignored. However, the reward of great views all through the hike, and the feeling of accomplishment of making it to the top make the effort worthwhile. Bring: 3 quarts water, sturdy hiking shoes that can get wet, swimsuit, gloves, sun screen, sunglasses, insect repellent, lunch, and camera. Special conditions: Steep slopes, sword grass, walking in water, and rope climbing.
