WMC Waterfall Wednesday Battle Creek

​Join us for a run through Battle Creek Falls. The trail covers a short .6 mile walk up to the Falls with little elevation gain. If time permits, we may set up a guideline to zip down as well. We'll meet at the trailhead. Donations are needed to help cover costs for webbing, quick links, and new ropes (one rope was damaged beyond repair on the last waterfall Wednesday) other supplies. You can donate here https://venmo.com/u/JoeAdamson (last 4 digits of my phone number are 8453) Priority will be given to newcomers who haven't attended a Waterfall Wednesday before. This is an intermediate canyon, rated Class-Cl, involving rappelling on a very slippery surface.

​Dress for Summer weather—think hot weather attire, closed-toed shoes that can get wet, and any additional gear needed for comfort during the day and at least a liter of water. Wetsuits may not be needed unless you run cold and plan on rappelling the water numerous times.
