LANDSLIDE FALLS |
|
| RATING - 5/10 TYPE OF APPROACH - Bushwhack DIFFICULTY - Fairly Easy LOCATION - Wells Creek Road TYPE - Tiered HEIGHT - 200' WIDTH - 30' |
Landslide Falls is a long series of smaller drops along Wells Creek. The only drop that can be seen clearly is the top one, the 15' tall drop shown below. There looks to be between 6 and 8 drops total with the tallest one being around 50' tall. In total, the falls drop about 200' over a horizontal distance of about 400'. If it were possible to get a view from the bottom of the entire falls this would be a great falls. I'm not sure that's possible though. I'll probably go back in the future and mess around further down the falls more to try and get a better view.

| DIRECTIONS - Follow
the directions to Nooksack Falls. Continue on Wells
Creek Road for 3.1 miles and pull off at a turnout on the right. Head into the woods
towards Wells Creek. The going is fairly easy through the woods. You should
come out somewhere near the falls in around 1/5 of a mile. If not, head downstream a
little further. Getting to the top of the falls is very easy, but getting clear
views of the lower sections seems to be very tough, if not impossible. NEARBY WATERFALLS - Excelsior Falls, Lower Mazama Falls, Mazama Falls, Nooksack Falls, Sholes Creek Falls, Wells Creek Falls |
