Hiking
One of the hidden gems of the Castle Crags, accidentally skipped by many who are hiking the PCT. To reach them you will need to scramble a bit following the stream upwards from the PCT. You will first encounter a "smaller" 25 feet fall but if you continue scrambling along the faint trail, you will reach the gorgeous 50-foot free fall.
