Marymere Falls, Olympic National Park

Filed under: Photo of the Day  

Marymere Falls is located near Lake Crescent in Olympic National Park. 90 feet high, Marymere Falls marks the spot where Barnes Creeks drops down a vertical rock face on its descent to nearby Lake Crescent. An easy one-mile trail leads the visitor from the Storm King ranger station on the shores of Lake Crescent through a peaceful forest of massive sword ferns and soaring cedar and fir trees. Kids will enjoy the corrugated metal tunnel under old Highway 101 and the narrow wooden bridge over Barnes Creek. At the end of the trail, a brief ascent offers two lookouts from which to admire Marymere Falls.
