About This Waterfall

From Battle Ground follow SR 503 north for 5 1/2 miles to NE Lucia Falls Road and turn right. Moulton Falls County Park will be encountered 8 1/4 miles down NE Lucia Falls Road on the right-hand side. Alternatively one can reach this site by driving south from Yacolt for 2 3/4 miles. A flight of steps leads to the rocks adjacent to the top of the falls.Moulton Falls is the smallest of the five named waterfalls along the East Fork Lewis River, but also the easiest to access. The falls flume down a narrow trough, dropping over a series of potholes for about 10 vertical feet before the river mellows. When the East Fork runs high the falls swallow themselves up pretty well and it becomes more of a long rushing rapid than a waterfall, so if one is pressed for time, I would suggest skipping this waterfall and seeking out the better falls in the area.
