Lower Middle Fork Tuolumne Falls

This 182' waterfall exists just above the confluence of the Middle and South Forks of the Tuolumne River as three major drops. There is a nice bridge that crosses the river just below it and makes it possible for good views. The upper tier of South Fork Tuolumne Falls is also just upstream of this confluence. Unbelievably, these waterfalls receive much less attention than the much smaller and less interesting Rainbow Pool Falls upstream on the South Fork. In 2012, there was a rock slide across the road just below these waterfalls and the end of the bridge was taped off. The gate at the beginning of the road was also closed to cars due to the danger of more rock slides. This road is very narrow and steep, so I'm not sure you would want to drive down it anyway, but the walk is well worth the effort to see four waterfalls within 700' of each other.Location
