Looking for some golden refreshment on a hot summer day? Or a quiet place to sit and observe the golden waters of Goldmine Stream, colored by sulfur in the granite to make the water a golden color on sunny days?

Hike 1.5 miles west along a herd path, marked by a water bottled tied to a tree with bailing twine. The trail is roughly 200 feet south of Campsite 14.

Gentle Drop Into A Golden Pool

There are two pools like this at Goldmine Stream Falls, at the bottom of gentle falls. The pools aren't very deep -- maybe three feet or four in high water -- but provide refreshment on a hot day in a beautiful glen with great looking water.
