Paradise Falls Cave Hike: 5 Surprises Inside the BC Cave Adventure

This Paradise Falls cave hike turned into one of the wildest adventures on the Herbistry420 channel — 5 unforgettable moments including a cave exit so tight I had to ditch the backpack just to squeeze through. Joined by my buddy Zoli, we blazed a live hash rosin cart, scrambled across slippery stream crossings, and discovered that the cave near Paradise Falls is equal parts hype and humbling. If you love cannabis-friendly outdoor adventures in British Columbia, this one’s for you.

Paradise Falls Cave Hike: What to Expect on the Trail

The hike back to Paradise Falls starts with familiar terrain — the “farting cactuses” (nepalis) near the trailhead, a slippery stream crossing that’s basically a real-life American Ninja Warrior obstacle, and views that make every stumble worth it. This is our second trip to this area, and returning with a flashlight, snacks, a veggie tray, and a Jetty disposable live hash rosin cart made the whole thing feel next level.

The hike involves uneven surfaces, exposed rock scrambles, and at least one very sketchy water crossing. Wear proper footwear — Fordee will be the first to admit that regular shoes on wet rocks is not ideal, especially when you’re stoned on 81% THC live hash rosin.

5 Wild Moments From the Paradise Falls Cave Adventure

1. The Cave Entry Letdown — After building it up since the previous video, the cave turned out to be about 12 feet long. Still worth it. 100% still worth it.
2. The Tightest Cave Exit in BC — To get out the back end of the cave, the backpack had to come off. Crawling through that crevice stoned is a full-body experience.
3. Jetty Tropicana Cherry Cart Review on the Trail — A disposable live hash rosin cart with 90% total active cannabinoids and 81% THC. Strong but coughy — great flavour though. Full mini-review in the video.
4. The Stream Crossing from Hell — This was genuinely sketchy. Slippery rocks, no handholds, and a high probability of ending up in what might be poison water (there was a sign). Made it across. Barely.
5. Waterfall Dab Session with the JCVAP Poby — The best moment: sitting beside the waterfall, Tropicana Cherry live rosin loaded into the Poby, veggie tray in hand, no kids around. Pure bliss.

BC Cave Exploration: What You Actually Need to Know

If you’re planning your own BC cave exploration adventure near Paradise Falls, here’s the honest breakdown from someone who over-prepared and under-prepared at the same time:

• Flashlight: Brought one (spent $10 on batteries). Did not need it. Cave is like 12 feet.
• Good Shoes: Absolutely essential. This is not a suggestion.
• Water: Bring your own. The stream water exists but is probably not drinkable without iodine tablets.
• Snacks: Veggie tray with ranch dressing. Peak stoner trail snack. 10/10 recommend.
• Cannabis: A disposable cart or a discreet device like the Poby is ideal. Keep it away from families and kids — that’s just good trail etiquette.
• Plastic Bag: Do not forget a bag for your trash. Fordee learned this the hard way and had to carry a veggie tray container the entire hike back.

Underground Cave Hike Safety Tips

This particular underground cave hike is short enough to be accessible, but the surrounding terrain is genuinely challenging. A few safety notes:

• Tell someone where you’re going before you head out.
• The stream crossings are slippery year-round — go slow even if other people make it look easy.
• Light gets low fast in the late afternoon. We were out close to 5pm and it was getting dark quickly.
• The “cave exit” section requires removing your pack — don’t fight it.
• Dress in layers. In the shade it’s cold; in the sun it’s warm. Confusing.

Cannabis Product Used on This Hike

Fordee brought two cannabis products on this adventure:

• Jetty Tropicana Cherry Live Hash Rosin Disposable Cart — 90% total active cannabinoids, 81% THC. Strong, smooth flavour, but causes coughing on bigger hits. Best for 1-2 small rips if you want to stay functional on a hike.
• JCVAP Poby with Tropicana Cherry Live Rosin — The waterfall dab session. If you’ve never dabbed next to a waterfall in British Columbia, add it to your bucket list immediately.
