Falling for Waterfalls By Rich Greene When Mother Nature blessed Tehama County with its unlimited recre- ation she also hid away a few gems. They may be not be the natural phenomena that create an entire tourist industry around them, but it's with their own unique simplicity you can see Mother Nature's touch for beauty. Shortly after moving to Tehama County I set out to find one of these gems. It was one of those hot, spectacularly sunny days we take for granted around here. At the time it was new enough to me I believed I had better take advantage of it in case we didn't get another great day of weather the rest of the year – oh how I've learned since then.

Many of these hidden gems remain so because there are no brochures trumpeting their beauty or even road signs to help one find them. Little Hawaii Falls is no excep- tion. I gathered what infor- mation I could about my destination, including some directions I wasn't sure were made up or not, and coerced my wife to tag along. Fortunately, our dog came more will- ingly.
