Waterfall Hikes Near Gallup, NM

Gallup sits in dry country, and the waterfall page shows it with just two entries. The Falls is the easier of the pair, an out and back of a mile and a half that climbs 200 feet. Big Falls covers identical mileage while the grade stiffens to 300 feet and a moderate rating. Bring the dog to either one. Watch the sky more than the calendar out here, because these drainages only carry water after the late-summer monsoons arrive.
