This is the first time I have ever been on a hike where every hiker carried a tripod!  It seems that everyone knows how photogenic this waterfall is.

There is a small tributary just before the falls that is also excellent for photography.

Be sure to protect your camera from spray between shots and to wipe the lens prior to each picture you take.

This is an easy hike to a wonderful destination.

A beautiful hike in between rain showers. The trail was in excellent condition. The only water on trail was about 2 inches deep on the bridge over the falls. I only saw one other person on the hike.

Took the campground loop trail from the resort to the falls on a rainy day. Normally we would try lovers lane but we thought it might be in rough shape in terms of trees and mud, so we thought we would attempt the campground loop trail first. Snow fields cover quite a few areas and we had to back track to find the trail. Lots and lots of downed trees that completely blocked the trail, including the trail to the campground, so we bush whacked a lot... 2.5 miles took well over an hour. See photo for the trail that now goes vertical where the path beside the tree was also uprooted - the tree is lying along the length of the trail. Work parties needed! Muddy, wet, snowy, with scrambling and big falls. It was fun but the kids decided that it would be faster to walk back along the road so we could get back in the hot tubs. In other words, attempting lovers lane was not even an option based on the loop trail conditions. Maybe in another month and after some trail maintenance it will be more passable?

We took the trail from the Sol Duc Hot Spring Resort - hoping to make a longer hike to get to the falls. It winds through the camp grounds and along the Sol Duc River. There were many large trees blocking the trail and lots of obstacles - which can be fun and challenging if you're prepared for that. We ended up turning back when we reached an area bout 2 miles in where the combination of trees down and large patches of snow just made it a bit too challenging. Ended up just driving to the end of the road and taking the trail to the falls from that trailhead the next day.
