JORDAN CREEK FALLS

RATING - 10/10

TYPE OF APPROACH - Roadwalk

DIFFICULTY - Difficult

LOCATION - Marblemount Area

TYPE - Tiered

HEIGHT - 588'

WIDTH -  80'

Jordan Creek Falls is the best waterfall I've ever seen.   Not only is it around 600' tall, it's almost 100' wide at the bottom and the amount of water coming down is massive.  No matter how impressive the pictures may be, they don't come anywhere close to showing this falls.  If you possibly can, make the difficult journey into the falls.
DIRECTIONS - Drive up Cascade River Road for about a half a mile and turn right onto Rockport-Cascade Road.  In around a mile the road crosses over Jordan Creek.  Park at the turnout just before the creek and head up the gated logging road on the left side of the road.  About 4 miles into the hike you will get your first view of the falls.  There are 4 forks along the way:  right, right, left, left.  The final fork heads up a fairly brushy old logging road.  When it ends, head steeply up the hill into the woods (try to avoid the boulder field if you can).  In a couple hundred feet you'll come out of the trees at the base of the falls.
