Overview

Hype:

The hike to Bullion Falls is a short, fun hike to an impressive, 60-foot waterfall. Bullion Falls flows year round. The falls are visible from the trail, but a short scramble past the end of the trail takes the more adventurous hiker to the base of the falls. The first part of the hike is on an ATV trail that is heavily trafficked. The last part of the trail is foot traffic only. During the hike, you will catch a glimpse of Cascade Falls across the canyon.

Story

This was part of High Adventure camp. After rafting down the Sevier River, several of us went and hiked up to Bullion Falls in our free time. Then we went back and rafted the river a second time.
