It had been raining for weeks and we were pleasantly surprised there was just a few small mud holes that you could easily go around. We had a great time, we only saw one other person the entire time we were there. 6/8/2019

Very nice! I actually did a sort of double-red loop, first taking the “short red trail” cutoff and then doubling back to complete the outer loop, too. Per other recommendations, I did the trail counter-clockwise, which put the ankle-deep water crossing towards the end of the hike. Mostly flat but with just enough elevation differential to keep things interesting. The first part of the trail suffers from Hwy 65 road noise, but once you get a bit past the cemetery, that dissipates and for almost the entire rest of the time (until the last bit through the campground area), it’s very quiet and serene through dense woods. My first Busiek hike; looking forward to trying the rest of them!
NB: the shooting range is closed Mondays so that may be a good day to do the west side hikes.

Good hike, a little hard to find the trail at times, BEAUTIFUL in the fall with the leaves changing.

Beautiful short trail. Our hike ended up right at 3 miles from the parking lot. We did this in the winter. Great views of the falls and then the trail continues down to the river. Little bit of uphill and then a nice coast back to the parking lot. Grabbed lunch at a local spot and headed on home.
