Waterfalls!

Before I dive into the series of desert hiking posts I had to post a quick note about the waterfalls at Uvas Canyon County Park (west of Morgan Hill tucked into the Santa Cruz Mountains). Today was a perfect day to visit as the rain has stopped falling from the sky but it has most certainly not stopped tumbling down the creeks. We did a short loop hike past several waterfalls and only saw a small handful of people while we were out. Anyways, if you’re in the area I highly recommend checking out the park after a good rain. Holy waterfalls batman!

Beautiful photos of the falls. How did you capture the movement of the water?

Camera on manual mode with a slow shutter speed and a tripod. I didn’t have my big SLR on this hike, I just used my trusty little Panasonic LX3 and a small gorillapod.

It’s been such a long time since I visited Uvas Canyon. Thank you for reminding me about it.

Wow, the waterfalls are amazing. I love the job the LX3 did along with your settings and tripod. Can’t wait to hear about the desert hikes. Just discovered I have a hiking friend that hiked with your group on the JMT a few years ago.
