Wildcat Falls
Most people driving along the El Portal Road zoom past Wildcat Falls without even knowing it was there. Since it's largely concealed by vegetation, this waterfall is easy to miss and rarely attracts visitors. This is even more remarkable when you consider that it's essentially the next door neighbor to the semi-famous attraction Cascade Falls. But that means you can have the falls to yourself and enjoy it in peace, or claim it as your own private falls. To get to the base of the falls, walk west along Route 140 on the north side of the road until you see a small opening roughly a 1/4-mile from the car park for the Cascades (signpost M1). Tell us about your experience with this waterfall.
