Upper Navajo Falls come into being in 2008 when the flood of that year moved massive amounts of rock and mud gouging out a deep bed. The old Navajo Falls was bypassed in the process leaving it dry. New Navajo Falls has one of the same characteristics of its namesake; the creek erupts out of dense vegetation in many different streams to fall about 50' into the pool. This is how the old Navajo Falls behaved at times shifting a lot of its flow through the trees and shrubs to tumble down the rocks in various places across the face of the cliff. Access is not too easy as there are large boulders and rocks just below the falls creating somewhat of a visual barrier, it is passable though. The creek then winds its way down an 1/6th of a mile till it reaches Rock Falls.
