Details
Start at Raven Cliff Falls parking lot; take Raven Cliff Falls Trail to Dismal Trail; down Dismal to Mathews Creek; cross creek and up Naturaland Trust Trail past the Cathedral [possible icicles] and on to the suspension bridge area above the Falls for lunch. Here we will split into two groups--one continuing up Naturaland Trust and back to the parking lot via the easier Raven Cliff Falls Trail [1800']; the other heading back down the way we came and up Dismal Trail for an additional 1200' of climb but approximately the same mileage. Possible optional detours down a short rope for a view of the Falls and/or side trip to the Raven Cliff Falls viewing platform [adds about a mile]. The harder version will be VVS.
