On the way down the canyon from our hike to Diamond and Star Lakes we had a few extra minutes, so we stopped at the Provo River Falls. I usually skip the falls because they're so popular, and this time was no exception to the crowds. The parking lot was full and a few people had parked on the road.
The falls are really pretty, but even better is that there are 3 different sets of the falls. The top one is the most popular, with the number of visitors declining as you go downstream. I really liked the middle falls too.
We had the lowest falls to ourselves. Overall, this is a fun stop for looking, with some pools for playing in the water. The one downside is the crowds.
