The Cascade Basin is an amazing place.   Surrounded by glaciated mountains on all sides and waterfalls all around.  The four falls I refer to as Cascade Basin Falls are all to the south of the trailhead and drop off of Cascade Peak into the North Fork Cascade River.  Each of these falls are several hundred feet tall and are all unique in appearance.

DIRECTIONS - Drive up Cascade River Road to the trailhead in 23 miles.  Four large waterfalls dump off the glaciers of Cascade Basin and join to form the North Fork Cascade River.

NEARBY WATERFALLS - Boston Creek Falls, Gilbert Falls, Johannesburg Falls, Morning Star Falls, Roush Creek Falls, Soldier Boy Falls, Torment Falls
