| Few places make can really make you feel like you are in a National Geographic special, or in a Hollywood film, but Calf Creek Falls is one of those surreal places. It can be hot in the summer, and the swim at the end is quite frigid, it makes you long for the hot walk back. I have done this many times and it never ceases to amaze! Remember to look for the petroglyphs halfway up on the east side of the canyon. There is a number marker to mark which they are. | |

| Absolutley amazing place to be in a thunderstorm as is the case with any canyon in the Colorado plateau. Waterfalls throughout the canyon. | |

| Went to both Upper and Lower Calf Creek Falls. There is a pretty cool or should I say cold? swimming/divng hole just above Upper Calf Creek Falls. Water is freezing, a great way to spend an afternoon! | |

| byates | Between the falls | |
| One of the Hidden gems is the area between the falls, great pools and isolation for not to much effort. | |

| tp | Easy Short Hike | |
| This is a very nice easy hike. The falls are incredible, and the Fremont Indian graineries and pictographs are nice side atractions in this canyon. | |

| seanpeckham | beautiful!! Date Climbed: Sep 16, 2007 | |
| I've hiked to the lower falls twice. First time, jumped in the cold water, and immediately turned purple. More recently, did a 28-mile bike ride along Route 12 across Calf Creek Canyon and then hiked to the upper falls and skinny-dipped in the pool. Both falls are extremely gorgeous, and the entire canyon is very pretty. | |
