Description
This is just a small bowl holding some ice. Walking in from the power plant, you will run into this waterfall first. It is hard to see all of it from above. As the approach trail splits, go left to come in at the top of the falls, just like heading to Ames Upper Falls. Take the fork to the right to come into the bottom of the practice area. A couple of different variations can be climbed. The main waterfall is in the center and a minor flow comes down from the right. This is an excellent climb for a first lead or a fun cruise as a solo. See Colorado Ice Climber's Guide by Cameron Burns - 1997 as a reference. Enjoy.
