Winter
Falls at Silver Falls
Park
---------------------------
Winter Falls is one of 10 falls within Silver Falls
Park. It is accessible via a trail
from a parking area along the main road. It is called Winter
Falls because this 134 foot waterfall depends on winter runoff
and best seen in the winter, spring and early
summer. As you can see from these photos it was just a
trickle and it was late in the day when we visited the falls.
While we visited only 4 of the 10 falls the others are accessible via
an extensive trails system. The trail to the Lower South Falls
was closed and
undergoing repair from a slide that damaged the trail during the
previous winter.
Bill is seated at a spot by the falls themselves. Another
part of
the trail continues on to other falls.
