π Insider Tips
- β‘Visit between late November and mid-December to witness the massive redwood canopy turn a fiery, brilliant copper-red color over the emerald water.
- β‘Bring a sturdy camera tripod; the cascading mountain stone waterfalls are a premier global location for long-exposure fine art water photography.
- β‘The paths running around the reservoir loop are level but can grow damp and slick; high-traction trail runners or athletic sneakers are highly recommended.
- β‘Lined with a few highly rustic wooden tea shacks serving fresh local green tea infusions; carry your own personal power snacks securely.
