Registration required. There is no cost to join us, but we do ask you sign up so we don’t leave any stragglers behind at the trailhead! This event has been made possible by Now Health.
When: Sunday, September 28
Please arrive at the trailhead between 12:45PM and 1PM. We will begin our hike promptly at 1PM.
Where: We will meet at the end of Jonesville Road
What to expect: The hike is roughly 12 miles round-trip if you start from the end of Jonesville Mine Road. While it’s a long day, the elevation gain is moderate, and the reward is big: a stunning waterfall tucked in an alpine valley, with views stretching back toward the Matanuska River Valley.
🥾 Mileage: Approximately 11 miles
🥾 Elevation Gain: About 2,500 feet
🥾 Estimated Hiking Time: 6-8 hours. Please plan for an all day adventure.
Can I bring my pup? No. We ask you leave pups behind for this event. Thanks for understanding.
Cost: This is a free community event. Thank you, Now Health!

Warm gear (hats, mittens, scarves)
Rain gear
Headlamp
Water, snacks, and a packed lunch as desired
A note on flexibility: The nature of adventuring outside requires some flexibility. We do our best to follow the itinerary as outlined, but we may need to shift plans for a variety of reasons. Safety is our priority and we use our best judgment when making trip adjustments.
Trip minimums: We require a minimum of 2 registered participants to run our community trips. In the event we do not meet our trip minimum, your guide will call you the evening prior to our trip departure.
Weather: We rarely cancel due to inclement weather. Please bring gear to adventure in the elements. If you need to borrow something, let us know! We have lots of extra supplies and are happy to loan items out if needed.
Will I summit? Revel makes no guarantees that individuals or our group will summit during these adventures. It’s a great goal, but safety remains our top priority. The nature of recreating in Alaska requires flexibility. Weather, wildlife, terrain, injury, etc. can all warrant a shift in plans. Please join our adventures with an open mind.
