This spring turned out to be the season of chasing waterfalls for us. Our third, and final, waterfall we visited was Sycamore Falls outside Williams. Tucked away in the Sycamore Canyon Wilderness and flowing only a couple months out of the year, this was yet another adventure we had put off until we got an SUV. It was a cool Saturday after a couple days of rain so we were lucky enough to have the canyon mostly to ourselves - minus a couple climbers. Despite the clouds, the blue green water, similar to that at Fossil Creek, stunned. We were surprised by how short of a walk it had been from the trailhead to the falls so we walked the along the rim for awhile to admire the views of the canyon and pools of the clear, blue green water. Our work schedules have unfortunately been completely opposite lately - in the last two and a half weeks we haven't had a single day off together! Hopefully we'll be able to get back out and explore other incredible places, like Sycamore Falls, together again soon. Any recommendations for northern or central AZ adventures? Comment or send us a message!

Hey great post! What trailhead did you park at? I did a lot of the rim today and saw some beautiful falls but was looking for this waterfall in particular and couldn't find it..

Hey Abby! Thanks for commenting :) I'm not entirely sure of the trailhead since it's been awhile since we've been out there. Sycamore Falls is a seasonal waterfall so it only flows when there's a lot of water (snow melt mostly) so you may have walked right by it but missed it since it's probably not flowing this time of year. Hope you can find it in the future!
