Lancaster Falls

Named in honor of Samuel Lancaster, designer of the Columbia River Highway, this waterfall is located one mile from the Starvation Creek Rest Area along the Mount Defiance trail. Only a small portion of it can be seen from the trail. However, an upper tier can be seen by scrambling up the slope from the trail, though I would not recommend this unless you are in very good physical condition. This gallery includes photos of both the lower and upper tiers.

Here is a video of the upper tier so you can better appreciate this waterfall.
