New Years Day Waterfalls

Atmospheric river storms got these waterfalls running on New Years Day. I had scouted this area out a year prior and kept it on my list to check after a heavy rain storm.

Be sure to check out the video card links for the background on finding these waterfalls. It was the result of many trips up here, looking for other things and also checking out USGS historic topographic and hill shade maps. These falls are visible off of a paved road, if you know exactly where to look. But I had ridden by here for 10+ years without knowing they were here.

This water fall drops about 50 ft. (15 m) into Stevens Creek at the end of the outflow channel of an old abandoned pond. Located a few miles west of Cupertino, CA. This part of the falls is hidden from view from below.
