Rendezvous Conspiracy
My wife had to work on saturday so we went out sunday to explore. I've been meaning to show her this area fo a while now.

The only route I am familiar with is the hike in from the Julian side. We hiked in from above, looking down on the falls. Looking up is much cooler!
Thanks for sharing.

I've explored that valley just north of El Capitan Reservoir as well and while it's beautiful I would strongly recommend not driving down there. The access to the valley floor (through the gate that BW mentions) is across Barona Indian land and they are very particular about who has authorized access to be on their property. The northern part of the valley is owned by some private entities who I've heard are strongly opposed to trespassers as well. I believe that the falls are on National Forest Land so I'm sure there are ways to legally hike down to see them - I just wouldn't risk taking a vehicle down and getting locked inside the gate, or getting caught trespassing on private property.
