The Wild Basin Area of Rocky Mountain National Park
![]() |
| Ouzel waterfall is the biggest one. |
This is the least visited area of the park. Just a narrow dirt road with limited parking. The hike began from the Wild Basin Trailhead under coldness and a light rain. Stripes of snow still on the high peaks. Visited the three waterfalls: Copeland Falls on North St. Vrain Creek, Calypso Cascades on Cony Creek, and Ouzel Falls on Ouzel Creek. Total distance hiked: ~7 miles. Elevation gain of 950 feet at Ouzel Falls (elevation over sea level: 9,384 ft).
