Starting up the wash from the Darwin Falls parking lot.


Entering the lush section before getting to Lower Darwin Falls.


Lower Darwin Falls.

Lower Darwin Falls below on the right (you can see people viewing it). We went up a scramble to its left.

Looking back down the canyon, Lower Darwin Falls somewhere below on the left in this photo.

Class 2/3 scrambles above Darwin Falls. I recommend heading down as soon as you can to end up just above Lower Darwin Falls. Although you could stay high and a route will take you above the Upper Darwin Falls, it becomes low Class 4, and it's fun but unnec

Past Upper Darwin Falls heading farther up the canyon.

Another little waterfall along the way.



Beautiful scenery up here.

Avoiding a mucky section.


Getting to the bushwhacking section where the interesting stuff seemed to end. We turned around here.

Heading back and approaching the rappel down Upper Darwin Falls.

Looking down Upper Darwin Falls. There was webbing set up on the south side of the canyon, not where this photo was taken.

Heading out of the Darwin Falls rappel area. There is a swimmer to get out.

Continuing past Upper Darwin Falls, headed down the canyon. You could rappel down Lower Darwin Falls, but it didn't look too appealing. We just scrambled back up and over the way we had come.
