Rocky Mouth Falls is a spring-fed waterfall at the mouth of Rocky Mouth Canyon above Sandy, in Salt Lake County. Park in the small signed trailhead lot on the east side of Wasatch Boulevard, across from a church. Climb the stairs to a residential street, turn right as the sign directs, and walk up the sidewalk past several homes to more trail signs and a path between two homes. The path climbs, then levels off to the falls. You may no longer park on Eagle View Drive, and signs at the upper trail entrance say there is no trailhead parking. The first half of the walk goes through a neighborhood, so respect the homes. Dogs are not allowed because the canyon is watershed. Return the same way.
