DIRECTIONS - The falls are located just downstream from Mirror Lake along the PCT. The shortest route is probably to take the trail to Cottonwood Lake, follow it over to Mirror Lake, and then head down the outlet. It's possible to make a loop hike out of this as well.
Mirror Lake is a pretty little stop along the PCT Trail. Just downstream on the outlet, the trail skirts its way around this small waterfall. On my trip, it was almost dry, but even at full volume, this one appears to be of minimal interest. If you happen to be hiking the PCT in this area, it's worth stopping to take a couple pictures.
