DIRECTIONS - Follow the directions to
Middle Blue Lake Falls. At the fork, turn left over the bridge
instead of heading up to the Blue Lake Fork of Bear Creek. After the
bridge the road will make a sort of s-turn. Head into the woods once
the road straightens out again. It's about 1/8 of a mile upstream to
the falls. Stay away from the creek to avoid brush until right at the
end. NEARBY WATERFALLS - Dock Butte Falls, Middle Dock Butte Falls |

A
short distance upstream from an active logging road in the Bear Creek
Drainage lies this nice waterfall. The falls begins with a 40' plunge
into a nice bowl. As it flows out of the bowl, it drops another 15'
into a pretty pool of water. There are several small drops upstream as
well that could be added onto the height, but they are pretty difficult to
view thanks to a tremendously high number of trees that have fallen over the
creek. While this isn't a huge waterfall, it's very pretty and it's
relatively easy to access compared to many of the others in the area.
