Easy hike to a waterfall previously known as Ousel Falls - name changed to Adams Falls in a party of 1907. The East Inlet Trail keeps going up. We climbed until a change of weather stopped our hike to Long Pine Lake. That happened after the East Inlet Falls - no good views of these falls from the trail, but nice ones of Mt. Craig (12,007 feet-3,660 meters), Mount Wescott (10,438 feet-3,181 meters), and the East Inlet Valley with Grand Lake and the Never Summer Mountains on the backdrop. Little further from Adams Falls, amazing meadow.
