The trail and the river were absolutely beautiful. The cascades and waterfalls were very relaxing. Although, I would suggest hiking it from the south end if you plan to camp. There is better parking there, the trailhead is easier to find, and the best campsites are at the north end of the trail. The south end is shared with a horse trail.
Camping here can be quite smelly.
If started early enough, I could have easily hike in and out in a single day - even with my pack.
