Public Safety - Swift Water & Below Waterfalls Access Prohibited
The Bighorn River is fast flowing with cold mountain water.
Do not wade or swim in the water above or below the falls – access is prohibited.
The waterfalls have a strong undertow that goes down 30 feet which can drown a person. The river can sweep you off your feet and pull you down stream. Severe injury and death have occurred.
Stay to the day use areas, designated trails and behind fences at all time to protect yourself and the environment.
There is no cell phone service in the park, please plan ahead.
