DIRECTIONS -
Drive up Mt. Baker Highway to the lower trailhead for the Chain Lakes Loop.
Just down from the parking lot, the trail crosses a small dam on Bagley
Creek. The falls occurs a short distance downstream from here but it
is difficult to get to, especially if you want to keep your feet dry. NEARBY WATERFALLS - Heather Meadows Falls |

Bagley Creek flows out of the Bagley Lakes and drops over a long
series of 10-15' tall tiers. The area around the creek is covered with
huge boulders and lots of wildflowers so it's a gorgeous locale. The
falls aren't worth the effort it took to get down there, although it looked
like a larger tier may have been just downhill. I'll try to get a view
of the main section of this waterfall in future. It was pouring down
rain on my one trip in here.
