There were so many waves because the water had to make its way over rocks and to the left and the right of the rocks.  It was a very long river.  It went all the way through Kings Canyon.  The river was wild all the way up into the canyon, and then where all the trees were, it was calm and it looked like a lake, but it was a river.<\/p>\n<p>We stopped for a short walk to Grizzly Falls.  It was a big waterfall and it had a lot of melted snow coming down.  It was like a big thunderstorm.  We couldn&#8217;t walk right up to it because it was too wet and the air was full of cold water.  Instead, we walked up to a rock along the side of the falls where it wasn&#8217;t so wet.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1226\" style=\"width: 346px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/4wheels4girls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/kingscanyon1_grizzly.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1226\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/4wheels4girls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/kingscanyon1_grizzly.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"336\" height=\"450\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1226\" srcset=\"https:\/\/4wheels4girls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/kingscanyon1_grizzly.jpg 336w, https:\/\/4wheels4girls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/kingscanyon1_grizzly-224x300.jpg 224w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 336px) 100vw, 336px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1226\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Happy and wet in the mist of Grizzly Falls<\/p><\/div>\n<p>We walked to Roaring River Falls.
