Years ago I owned some property, 5 acres to be exact up in the Bold Estates area and behind our home was basically nothing until you came to the foot of Morice Mountain.
I would always enjoy taking an easy hike out to see what was behind us. One day my daughter and I walked up the side of a small creek which ran out of Silverthorne Lake, when in the distance we could hear a loud sound from rushing water.

It didn’t take much longer to reach what was a waterfall. The falls is approximately 12 to 16 feet in height. The creek was high at this time of the year due to the Spring runoff. We both sat watching and listening as the water fell into a pool below.
I had no idea if others knew about the falls, but since I had never heard about this, we tagged it our secret waterfall.
I had posted some photos and a video on this earlier this year, but I wasn't able to get down into the creek to take additional photos. Well my son-in-law did fight his way through the thick underbrush, including Devil's club, stinging nettles and a mess of blow down.

Here is a video clip of our secret waterfall taken in Spring when the creek was high due to
the runoff. The sound isn’t good at all, this was due to the LG G3 cell phone I had.
