This has got to be one of the coolest places in Las Trampas. There are two streams that cascade down the cliffs into the same pool. The flow you see here is the result of all-day drenching rain.

Here's a shot from last March, at the end (but perhaps peak) of the rainy season. Drenching rain showers had been hitting the Bay Area all day and the creeks were raging like I'd never seen.

This cascade in Las Trampas was nice because of how mossy and green it was. With the powerful storm that came through on Tuesday, I wouldn't be surprised if there's now water flowing at this very spot .
