I lived 20 mins from this park until I was 19 years old. I never knew about it until I came back home when I was 30 years old. An overcast morning long exposure on the Canyon Trail.

The waterfall in St. Louis Canyon can turn into a veil of ice in the winter.

Waterfall at the end of the Interior Canyon Trail. This water fall is also accessible by several stairs at the Matthiessen Lake Shelter parking lot. The road to the Matthiessen Lake parking lot is a single lane gravel road next to a golf course.
