Description

Lower Punchbowl Falls has a bit of an identity problem. The waterfall is ever overshadowed by its upstream neighbor, Punchbowl Falls. Even the name is borrowed; Lower Punchbowl isn't even a punchbowl type waterfall. Lower Punchbowl is home to hoards of swimmers and divers on hot summer days.
