Located on the Black River and only a 1/2 mile walk. Take in the scenery, once parked at Black River Harbor the hike to the falls starts with a suspention bridge. It's about a 15 - 20 min walk to see the very photogenic 20 ft waterfall. This falls has the option of seeing the falls from both sides but must be desided before your adventure. No safe place to cross the river. While on your way out make a stop at Copper Peak, one of the only Ski Flying hills in the US.

Located just a 1/2 mile from Blackjacks parking lot, this is a great first stop to your day adventures. Gabbro Falls has 2 different access points that give you two very different but unique views. One route is a 5 min walk up the river to get a stunning view from below the falls. The second is a 30 sec. walk from the road that perches you on top of the falls to see the crashing water below.
