There was a lot of rain the past week, so figured this scenic area along the Stony Brook and Pine Meadow Brook would be very pretty, and I was correct. It was rainy in the morning but not actively raining, keeping away the often-busy crowds that are usually here. I parked at Reeves Meadow, and took the Pine Meadow Trail up all the way to the intersection of the 7 Hills Trail, and then took the bridge crossing Pine Meadow Brook to the Kakiat Trail and headed back down. I then continued past the Cascade of Slid Waterfalls, which was flowing very strongly, and then had do cross the brook where the trail was out by the Kakiat and Stony Brook Trail, hopping along the rocks on the overflowing brook. I then took the Stony Brook Trail to the Pine Meadow Trail back to my car.
