Drury Falls is a greatly under appreciated waterfall. Fall Creek is a faily small stream which usually runs dry by late August, but during peak snow melt it produces a substantial volume of water. This is noteworthy because Drury Falls is located where Fall Creek plunges over the rim of 3,000 foot deep Tumwater Canyon just outside of Leavenworth. Virtually all motorists' wandering eyes - when passing through during the right time of year - will gaze upon the spectacular 455-foot plunging upper tier of Drury Falls. What most don't realize, however, is that the falls keep dropping almost three times as far - a total drop of 1,245, most of which is difficult to view.
