Hiker and forest in Kern Canyon on High Sierra Trail.
Chagoopa Falls plunges off 1,200 foot cliffs to land in the Kern River below on the Kern Canyon floor.
Chagoopa Falls plunges 1,200 feet down the western walls of Kern Canyon, into the Kern River on the canyon floor. It is one of the tallest waterfalls in the Sierras.
Big Arroyo is crossed on a sturdy bridge along the Lower Kern Trail.
Big Arroyo close to where it empties into the Kern River. Looking upstream.
Western bank cliffs of the Kern Canyon are over 1,000 feet high here, near the Kern Hot Springs. Seen looking south at the canyon bottom on a beautiful early May morning. The Kern River is to the right at the bottom of the cliffs but not visible here.
1500+ foot cliffs rise above the west banks of the Kern River, as the trail travels at the Kern Canyon bottom, through sequoias along its east banks. At Kern Hot Springs, look closely (bottom center) to see the hot springs hot tub in the meadow.
