When I got home and looked at the map I realized the proximity of Broadwater Hollow to Thunder Canyon. However, I feel that the hike in from the Cecil Cove Loop is probably the easiest way to get there, on foot anyways. The drive in may be treacherous, but that’s the reason I built my Jeep the way I did it, and I was never once worried about the conditions. Others will most definitely find it easier coming in from Broadwater! Even so, the hike down from Broadwater may be an interesting one and you might even find a few more waterfalls along the way. When the water isn’t so high, you could definitely make an easy trip from north of Jasper on Highway 7, but the Erbie Road will most likely always be the way it is, they do not maintain it at all. During dryer conditions it will be rutted but the ground will be solid, so you’d just need a vehicle with a lot of clearance underneath!

To get down to Compton falls you just follow a small trail on the road side of the creek down a ways and then you come to a hill that is easily traversed to get to the creek at the bottom. The hike along the top of the ridge there is pretty steep and slippery during wet conditions, but that’s the nature of waterfall hunting anyways! Always be careful! =)

Great photographs Zach! To get to Thunder Canyon Falls have you tried going via Broadwater Hollow? The hike may be a little longer but you can photograph Broadwater Hollow and I think its road may be better than Erbie Road. I have been to Compton Falls a couple of times, where do you climb down to get the shots from the bottom?
Thanks,
Brian

I really wish you’d update this more. You take great pictures. I really like the very last shot and the one of that epic tree. All the waterfall shots are great too!

I am aware Clay! =P

I mainly use Flickr as a hosting service for my photos, not as a showcase. I’d rather people view the photos here and read the story to go along with them. I usually set them to public about a month down the road after posting that way they can be viewed on Flickr. To be honest I don’t like the “popularity” buzz on Flickr, I’d rather my photos be found on my website than amongst the various asunder photos on Flickr.

Just the way I do it I guess and I’m loving it! =)

These are amazing, Zack. are you aware that they are set to “private” on Flickr? I’d like to click on some of them, but you may not want them set to allow that.
