Upper Falls Creek Falls

Upper Falls Creek Falls is a gorgeous two-stepped fall tucked deep into the mountains near Darrington. The falls consist of an upper tier which crashes into a narrow slot gorge in rather chaotic fashion, followed by a broader 88 foot plunging fall that descends into a large bowl-shaped amphitheater. Because of a slight turn in the creek between the two tiers, and the thick surrounding forest, there does not appear to be a way to view both tiers concurrently. When this waterfall was surveyed, we were on the wrong side of the creek to safely reach a view of the upper tier and cannot speak to its absolute size or shape, but we feel that the measurement we were able to get is probably relatively indicative of its height.
