Washington State's Official Waterfall

This is a significant honor, as Washington has hundreds of beautiful waterfalls.....

 

An autumn capture of this special falls. Always thrilling to visit here and walk the edge.

 

The Palouse river drops 187 feet into this rugged plunge pool.

 

"The canyon at the falls is 115 meters (377 feet) deep, exposing a large cross-section of the Columbia River Basalt Group. These falls and the canyon downstream comprise an important feature of the channeled scablands created by the great Missoula Floods that swept periodically across eastern Washington and across the Columbia River Plateau during the Pleistocene epoch."
