Hiking Bridal Falls


Me and my friend Tanner went hiking around Bridal Falls. Lot of people hike to the water falls and back but me and tanner wanted to hike to the closed of restaurant at the top.



Above the Falls there is this restaurant that has been closed for awhile now. They used to shuttle costomers up to the restaurant by this tram. The tram is also closed and abandoned. There aren't any clear marked paths or any roads that we knew about that lead up to the restaurant so we figured that not too many people have been to the top of the restaurant since it has closed. So we thought it we be cool to go and see what is still up there.






Well it is a pretty intimidating challange because there are a lot of ledges and overhangs that, unless you have rock climbing gear, you wouldn't be able to make it over. So me and Tanner decided that we were going to go up a little valley to the east of it to past those ledges without having to climb them. Then we would head parallel with the ledges to the restaurant.


Well we didn't make it. We got high enough but we ran out of time before we could make it over to the restaurant. It was still a lot of fun and we were able to take some cool pictures.








I only posted a couple pictures here so if you want to see more you can see on snapfish (Jamies Group) or just give me your e-mail and I will help you get them.

Cool hike. Scary!!! So why did the place close down?

My friend tanner said that he heard that it was closed down because there was a little rock slide that did damage to the base of the restuarant. So I guess instead of repairing it they closed it.
