Snag pick-up-sticks. Very shortly after we did this walk, we were reminded of the hazard old standing snags present when a visitor, climbing on the hill for the view on a windy day was killed by a falling tree. Not clear whether it was a living tree or a snag, but either way something to think about.
In this pile of fire-killed deadwood, very near the falls, there's ample evidence NPS has been at work, perhaps to reduce the danger to hikers.
