Where the Waterfalls Are
Coulee Dam sits in or near the North Cascades and the Snoqualmie Corridor area of Washington. The mountain highways east of Seattle and Bellingham pass some of Washington's best-known falls. Snoqualmie Falls, described as 270 feet tall, drops into a gorge beside an observation deck and a historic hydroelectric plant, and is the most reviewed waterfall in the state. Up the Interstate 90 corridor, Franklin Falls tumbles in three tiers on the South Fork Snoqualmie. Along US 2, Eagle Falls near Index and Deception Falls near Stevens Pass are short stops from the highway. To the north, Nooksack Falls drops into a narrow gorge on the Mount Baker Highway, and Chelan and Okanogan counties add falls on the drier eastern slope of the Cascades.
