back to waterfalls - Cottage Grove

1. Consult with Cottage Grove Ranger Station (541-942-5591) for status
   of Forest Service Road #22 (Brice Creek Road) before travel
2. Take Cottage Grove exit 174
   
3. Head east on Row River Road.
4. Past milepost 4 continue straight onto Shoreview Drive
   (Row River Rd splits off to the left - Shoreview Drive rejoins Row River Rd in another six miles)
5. Past milepost 19 Row River Road ends. Head straight onto Brice Creek Road (FSR #22)
   This road will have its own mileposts (road that veers left is FSR #17 to Spirit/Moon Falls)
6. Near milepost 8 look for a rest area just before a bridge and park on the
   left near the rest area (no easy place to park past the bridge)
7. Walk along the left side of the road. Immediately past
   the bridge is a trail marked 1403 (path for the other Falls). The trail for
   the Upper falls is marked 1403D just a few feet farther up the road. It is a
   1.5 mile switchback trail that is inclined upwards most of the way.
