Stay on developed trails and don’t stray from observation decks and platforms. 2. Follow instructions posted at all waterfalls and trails. 3. Watch your footing. Dry rocks can be just as slippery as wet ones, especially those covered with algae. 4. The top of any waterfall is the most dangerous. Do not lean over a ledge at the top of a falls. 5.
