Little Mashel Falls - Bud Blancher Trail — Sunday, Jul. 14, 2024

The trail is not the best marked, but the Park trail description was a little better, giving you the detail of the 1000 marker where the gate is, and then the unmarked junction after 1050/1060 (there is a white and a blue diamond on a tree) and I think both mention the rock with “Falls” written on it. We did both trails, first going up to the upper falls (the least impressive of the bunch). The middle/lower falls are the left and downward junction at the white/blue diamond split, and is better marked but if you aren’t paying attention it would be easy to miss the junction for the lower falls.

The middle falls are easily the best of the bunch, pretty impressive, with the lower falls less so but still better than the upper falls. Almost all of the elevation comes after the 1070 unmarked junction, the prior 1.9 miles is relatively flat. Doing all 3 falls was not difficult.
