About This Waterfall
Seahpo Peak Falls is the largest and most significant of several narrow braided waterfalls that stream off the east arm of Mount Shuksan. These waterfalls were first noticed on my second unsuccessful attempt to reach Sulphide Creek Falls and though all the other falls in the area proved pale in comparison to Sulphide itself, Seapho Peak Falls is substantial enough to warrant attention. The falls stream down from its namesake peak for about 2200 feet in several narrow tiers, the tallest being around 500 feet. Though the falls flow well during the summer and aren't thought seasonal in the traditional sense, unless the temperature is high or the winter snowpack is melting, this waterfall doesn't flow with a lot of force and as long as the temperature is moderately cool, chances are this one won't flow much at all. Colossal height aside, this is just a consolation prize.
