In an old thread from 2017 You talked about Canyoneerring a waterfall North of bichota Canyon. I have been wanting to hike to it. Can you reach the base of the falls through bichota Canyon without climbing equipment. Do the falls have a name do you have any pics of it? Any information would be greatly appreciated

Off the N fork of the San Gabriel river. Nowhere near Eaton. wakenorm: there are a number of posts about Bichota. Can you read those? They might answer your question.

Schvaterfall Canyon

@Taco it sounds like he's addressing you and your trip down Schvaterfall.

We went back to the area last year, and checked out the big drop in the next waterfall past Schvaterfall:
