A Frozen Grotto Falls

Grotto falls is the first of a series of waterfalls along the Hyalite Mountain trail. They're quite popular in the summer, but are possibly more spectacular in the winter. Only 2.5 miles round trip, this is an easy snowshoe. When winter temperatures are cold enough the falls freeze creating a cove like affect. You can cross the creek on a large downed tree and explore the frozen grotto.
