Waterfall Safety and Common Sense

Falls Creek Falls was kind of an accidental waterfall that I stumbled across while driving towards Stevens Canyon from the Ohanapecosh Entrance in Mt Rainier National Park.

In fact, I almost skipped stopping for this 30ft waterfall thinking that it was some miscellaneous roadside waterfall that we typically take for granted.

But given the presence of many vehicles surrounding the footbridge spanning Falls Creek, I figured that I mind as well stop and take a look.

That said, I suspect that most of the vehicles parked here actually pursued other hiking trails (e.g. the Grove of the Patriarchs) in the eastern side of Mt Rainier.

Aside from that, there’s not much more I can say about this short waterfall other than I counted more than one occasion where drivers would slowly roll on the road bridge to allow passengers to take photos while passing by.
