DIRECTIONS - From North Bend, turn north onto Ballarat Ave, which changes to 428th Ave, and then North Fork Rd. Two miles after crossing the river, take the left at a Y in the road. In a few miles the road will turn from paved to gravel. Just past this point is the best view of the falls, behind you and across the valley. It's a lot easier to spot on your way back down the road.

This massively tall waterfall is seasonal, drying out by the end of the summer. When it's running at full volume though, this is a thing of beauty, dropping hundreds of feet down the side of the moon wall. It is the tallest of all the falls in the tree farm area.
