A steep, wooded trail beside Mill Creek featuring the 'Thousand Step' rock stairway, cascades, mossy boulders and layered forest canopies. Great for intimate landscape and waterscape shots, seasonal color in fall, and moody mist after rain. Trail is moderately strenuous; small parking area at the Mill Creek access. No permit needed; expect uneven steps and limited cell signal. Best at golden hour, early morning fog, or after rainfall for flowing-water detail.
