What is the best time to go to Burney Falls?

The flow is good throughout the year because the Burney Creek feeds from the underground sources. Spring and fall months are the best time to visit the Falls as winter could be too cold and slippery so you cannot access some nice photo spots, and summer months are too crowded.
