Great Hikes! We're looking for a way to the top of Bridal Veil Falls from the backside. Any ideas? Any trails?

Last year, early June 2004, a friend and I hiked to the Pfiefferhorn from White Pines trailhead. We continued on through Bells canyon. Neither of us had been to the are before and it took us 16 hours to complete the hike. It was very difficult for us, but I am dreaming of going back.
