The ultimate adventure guide

Shortly after Lady Face Falls the trail crosses Stanley Lake Creek using a series of balanced logs.
The Stanley Lake Creek crossing in early July.
The old road and trail stays on the east side of Stanley Lake Creek, but it is possible to get down to the water in several spots.
Bridal Veil Falls pour over the lip of a steep gully on the west side of the canyon.
A steep, forested hillside flanks the west side of the canyon.
Access to Bridal Veil Falls is not recommeded. The terrain is steep, loose, and dangerous. Additionally, it is difficult to get a worthy vantage of the waterfall.
Bridal Veil Falls drains Hansen Lakes (bottom of photo). This view looks southeast across the lakes and Stanley Lake Creek Canyon. The west face of McGown Peak dominates the left side of the photo.
The steep west face of McGown Peak rises over the Stanley Lake Creek Valley.
Some of the gravel bars along Stanley Lake Creek are a great place for a picnic, or just to throw rocks.
