3.5 stars. I enjoyed this hike. It was quite peaceful to be able to hear the water running for most of the hike. It did, however, leave me wanting more! While there were occasional views of the surrounding mountains, there wasn't a clear summit or point that had a direct view. They are lots of views of the creek and re waterfall. So although it as a good workout, I probably wouldn't do this hike as I felt the view wasn't quite worth the effort.
