2008 - Mosaic Canyon Boulder Jam
- As you enter the 2nd narrows, a large boulder has fallen
to the bottom of the canyon making it difficult to continue up-canyon to
see the additional cascades and dry waterfall. Smaller people
can find a path under the boulder on the left side. There is also
a fairly difficult route around and over the boulder on the right side.
Since this is such a popular hike in the park, in due time a safer and
easier route will be carved around the fallen boulder.
