After the climb up Sawteeth I worked my way back to the car along the West River trail. This trail follows along the Ausable river which has dozens of waterfalls and rapids. Along the trail are large tributary flumes of water coming down the mountains to fill up the river. They were probably flowing at their peak as it had rained for the last week and now with the snow melting there was lots of water pouring down every stream and creek. The day had actually warmed up in the sun and the snow at lower elevation was melting fast. It was actually a little annoying as it seemed like it was raining under the tree canopy with the snow rapidly melting in the sun. Still there was lots to see and I enjoyed the walk out stopping often to catch another picture of a waterfall such as this one.
