From Siouxon Trail #130, Wildcat Trail crosses Siouxon Creek, which can be two to three feet deep during periods of high water. The trail then begins climbing a steep, rocky grade for 0.5 mile past the base of the waterfall, then climbs to a viewpoint above the 75-foot cascading Wildcat Falls. The trail continues climbing the ridge line of Wildcat Ridge, gaining 2,600 feet in elevation through a forest setting until it eventually ends on Huffman Peak Trail #129 at the saddle between Siouxon Peak and Huffman Peak.The trail features the spectacular 75-foot cascades of Wildcat Falls which are worth the exertion required to reach them.
