Walupt Creek Falls

Walupt Creek Falls is a relatively obscure, but massive waterfall on Walupt Creek, a large tributary of the Cispus River in Lewis County, Washington, at an elevation of 3500 ft. The falls cascade 221 ft down a bedrock cliff in two tiers, with an average breadth of 204 ft, a maximum breadth of 267 ft and an average flow of over 150 ft3 per second. The creek begins the drop by falling down a 10 ft cascade, then impacts a large, bell-shaped dome and spreads into a wide fan, dropping 200 ft. The final drop is a gently sloping slide that flows directly into the Cispus River. The feeder river, Walupt Creek, is sourced directly from Walupt Lake which provides a consistent flow throughout the year. The drainage basin of the river is also fairly large.

Shortly upstream, a series of cascades, 24 ft, 8 ft, and 29 ft high respectively, form the Upper Walupt Creek Falls. The cascades total 61 ft in height.
