Mario Larsen+FollowBlack Star Falls ThrillKick off at Santiago Canyon Road—veer left onto Silverado, then Black Star Canyon. Trail weaves 3 miles through rocky creek beds, ending at a thundering waterfall (rainy days = epic flows!). Final stretch? Scramble over boulders—sturdy shoes a must, offline maps recommended. Watch for poison oak; this canyon’s wild. Fun fact: 1831 battle site + old coal mine roots. Weekends get packed—arrive early to secure parking. #Outdoors#Hiking#BlackStarHike #OrangeCountyTrails #WaterfallAdventures00Share
