The Three Sisters Falls As you can see in the photo above, this waterfall on Boulder Creek consisted of three distinct sections separated by sloping granite cascades. The lowermost section seemed more like a steep waterslide of about 30ft in height or so. The uppermost section contained a single plunge that was probably on the order of ft.

This pair of drops in the middle section of the Three Sisters Falls was perhaps the most impressive one of the lot We were able to see all of these sections along a good chunk of the trail, but the experience was more rewarding when we actually got right up to each of its waterfalls. Context of the trail and where we would eventually end up down by the Three Sisters Falls way in the distance at the bottom of the canyon Even during our hike, we had witnessed an expensive search and rescue of one person who needed a rescue due to insufficient water, inappropriate hiking gear, and poor self-awareness about her conditioning.

This is the kind of steep terrain and slippery footing that you have to contend with around the Three Sisters Falls This, in turn, would ultimately reduce erosion on the terrain, reduce the amount of very risky sections, and even fund any search and rescue efforts. This was definitely one waterfalling excursion where being prepared was the key to success.

This means that you hike down to the waterfall and hike back up to the trailhead. Looking down at someone traversing a rope-assisted gully or rock wall around the Three Sisters Falls Most of the hike was very exposed to the sun and had minimal shade, which was further exacerbated by the already arid climate of San Diego County. The Three Sisters Falls adventure definitely came with a lot of risks as you can see here with Julie clinging onto a sloping ledge This meant shoes with good grip as well as physical conditioning and strength to do the scrambles and climbs made the difference between a nasty slip-and-fall or moving with more confidence.

We left our daughter at home because of this hike. Three Sisters Falls Trail Description — The Hike down switchbacks to a clearing From the trailhead see directions below , we followed a pretty obvious trail that briefly ascended to a hill with some burnt trees at its top probably indicating how fire prone this area could be.

Julie on the early part of the hike to the Three Sisters Falls, which started off innocently enough on an established trail On either side of the trail, we got nice views of the mountains and ravines surrounding this backcountry of San Diego County. The ravine on the left side seemed steeper, and it would turn out to be where we were headed. That became immediately apparent when we crossed the apex of the hill then descended it. At first, the trail descended straight towards a switchback with a wooden pole at its end.

After the initial ascent to a hill, the hike to the Three Sisters Falls then started its long descent into the canyon Given that the falls were deep into the ravine we were going into, that already gave us an idea of how far down we had to hike, and how far back up we had to return. After one long switchback, we found ourselves in an overgrown section of the trail near the dry Sheep Camp Creek In any case, the cool shade was already a welcome relief, and it was mostly flat until the foliage opened up and gave way to a regal views of the Three Sisters Falls when the trail turned to the left at a clearing.

Three Sisters Falls Trail Description — The Dicey Descent to the Bottom The trail then continued to descend as the terrain became increasingly steeper the further we went.
