DIRECTIONS - Drive out Glacier Creek Road and turn right onto Rocky Creek Road just before the Heliotrope Ridge Trailhead. Follow this road until its end, taking the left-hand fork at every junction. Hike the trail to the top of Grouse Ridge and then head right once you gain the ridge. This waterfall (and Warm Creek Falls) can be seen across the valley.

Marmot Ridge Falls appears to be a fairly substantial waterfall located in the valley between Grouse and Marmot Ridges. The waterfall appears to have three tiers: A 40ish' tall fan, a 40ish' tall cascade, and then what I believe is a 100+' third tier that starts as a steep horsetail and then ends up as a sheer plunge. I say believe because this entire third tier cannot be seen from the ridge. The waterfall can be distantly seen from the top of Grouse Ridge and a close up view might be possible as well, although it will require a LOT of work.
