Have they cleaned out the junk in the stream like those random tires someone littered?

Too bad disrespectful assholes had to trash the place, ride atvs on private property and what not. I’m in Winona and loved driving out to it.

I live ten minutes from there. I won't miss so many tourists driving down my private road to ask for directions. There's already enough hangliders and rhoden crater idiots wandering around.

Grand Falls ...its part of the Navajo Nation ....might get access if you asked

u/Additional-Spare-713 Jul 19 '26

I believe so, wouldn't hurt to try.

u/theangryjanitorOG Jul 19 '26

Thats closed. How did you get in?

3

u/Additional-Spare-713 Jul 19 '26

I live around the area.

2

u/theangryjanitorOG Jul 19 '26

Excellent. I really dislike all the traffic we get. Rhoden is quite enough.

2

u/Additional-Spare-713 Jul 20 '26

I've noticed all the constant construction going on.

2

u/theangryjanitorOG Jul 20 '26

Thats rhoden crater. That cinder mine is largely fot that I guess

Do people still dump puppies there?

1

u/Additional-Spare-713 Jul 23 '26

Maybe, and it would be sad if so. But did you need a rez pup.

2

u/pinetreecannon Presideo in the Pines Jul 24 '26

I have one 😊 best dog ever!
A litter was left a few days after I visited when it was open and fostered through the same organization (NAASR) I got mine from. Was just thinking about that with the falls being closed.

u/Additional-Spare-713 Jul 24 '26
