The Elk Creek drainage is absolutely chock-full of large waterfalls. So far, Northwest Waterfall Survey has mapped 11 waterfalls on it's various tributaries. Unfortunately, Elk Creek Falls is the only one of those that are easily accessed. On the plus side, Elk Creek Falls is one of the best waterfalls in the area. The falls drop over at least two tiers, each about 70 feet tall, with a possible 3rd tier a short distance above, which may bring the total height close to 200 feet. The falls are located just off the road, and are accessed via a barrier free trail, and a picnic table. During the winter, there are a pair of pretty ephemeral waterfalls in the area, one just downstream of the trailhead, and one just below Elk Creek Falls.
