| - Since the U.S. Forest Service has done a lot of improvements at the Cathedral Rock/South Loop Trail parking area which was also the trailhead for Little Falls, the new, PROPER way to get to Little Falls is this.
Drive up Kyle Canyon Road, SR 157. When you get to the last curve in the road DO NOT take it. Rather, go straight ahead on Echo Road the way you'd go to Mary Jane Falls. In a tenth of a mile, you'll turn to your left into the Echo Trailhead.
There is enough parking here for plenty of cars. From the northwest area of the parking lot, the trail goes to the base of a hill and then makes a left and you start your ascent. Part of this first part can be a chest buster, but if you take your time and/or stop for some breaks to catch your breath, you'll make it. When you get near the top of this first area, do not follow what appears to be a road/trail going off to the right. Follow the trail sign to the left and you'll come to the Little Falls trail.
When you connect with the Little Falls Trail, make a right and follow it up the canyon until you're at Little Falls. Unfortunately, with our very dry winter, there is no water coming down at Little Falls this spring. It's still a nice hike.
