Originally the site of a logging camp in the first part of the 20th century, Cherry Creek Falls is now a popular place for locals (and visitors) to cool off after a hike. The 25-foot falls are the final waterfall along Cherry Creek. The falls drop over a wide, rocky ledge into a large pool.
✅ Frozen Lake: Friday July 21st
Enjoy this 2.9-mile out-and-back trail near Greenwater, Washington. Generally considered an easy route, it takes an average 90 minutes to complete.
✅ Little Mashel Falls Friday, July 28th
The largest of the three major waterfalls in the gorge, the Little Mashel River drops over a small punchbowl before sliding down a smooth concave lip and veiling 125 feet into a pile of large boulders in the gorge below.
