 While
Olney Creek has lost a lot of its volume by this point, the smaller stream
runs through a beautiful canyon with at least three small
waterfalls in it. I was only able to clearly view two of these three on my
first trip into the area. Golden Pool Falls occurs when the creek
exits the canyon and enters the flatter, wider part of the valley. The
falls drop over a series of cascades for 36' before dumping into a deep,
beautiful pool of water, tinted blue by what I believe is tanic acid.
The canyon is only a few feet wide at this point. |

Valley Falls, continue upstream for a few hundred feet. You will
encounter a logjam that creates the beautiful golden pool at the bottom of
the falls. NEARBY WATERFALLS - Emerald Grotto Falls, Olney Valley Falls, Stickney Falls |
