Part of the trail with a stream coming down it as well, chance of feet getting wet, slippery and some rocks rock a little, good section to have a walking stick.

Rim of The Gap trail can be narrow in sections and drops off pretty quick.

Hillside log stairs help keep the trail together on heavy rains and makes it easier for your descent, or climb depending on which way you are going.

Parts of the trail are combination of stream bed. Trail has a chance of getting some feet wet. Because of under brush, path of least resistance is the trail.

Another tricky water crossing, used the rocks in background to cross and stay dry, few wet and slippery. Signs others are starting to do the same.

Sometimes the Rainbow is more than just falls, it can also be from some of the fall leaves, either way, probably why it is called Rainbow Falls.

Rainbow Falls Trail is steep in sections with stairs cut into the rocks but a nice trail and will go right below a granite face with another small stream as you get closer to the falls.

Before Rainbow Falls is reached, you'll come across these falls about halfway up the trail and makes a nice rest stop to watch and listen.
