Mossbrae Falls

It isn't Wednesday, but I have a waterfall to share anyway. On the last morning of my quick trip to the Shasta area, I made the hike out to Mossbrae Falls in Dunsmuir. Since the forecast was for clear skies, I left before sunrise to make sure I got some even light. There was a lot of water which created many options for foregrounds. Here is a fairly standard wide shot of the falls pouring out of the cliff and into the Sacramento River.

Any thoughts are welcome.

This is really so awesome Kyle! I am glad you didn’t save it.

Moss Brea is a Falls I sure would love to shoot one of these days. How far of a drive was it for you?

It's about a 4 hour drive from home. Not well marked (besides signs that say "no Mossbrae access") since it is technically trespassing to hike there.

Those are some really neat falls since they look like they just emerge out of the moss instead of some stream going over rocks.
It looks that way because that's what it is! Mossbrae is an amazing spot, they just need to work through the local politics and make a legit trail to get there.

Legit trails come with lots of people who can get there because of the trails. Are you sure you want that these days?
