Anyone know where Horse Tail Falls are? I get the feeling they are above Alpine somewhere. Anyone have pics, a route description, GPS waypoint or?

I just heard them mentioned in regards to a hiking death that occured a couple years ago and was curious about visiting them. Also was wondering if they would be suitable for ice climbing in winter.

A little help please?

So none of you have ever heard of Horsetail Falls????

Maybe Shaggy should hike up and find it this weekend if he is looking for a UT county hike.
