Winter at Big Fir Falls

This pretty little waterfall can be seen from Finney Creek Road.  Closer looks are fairly easy to attain by scrambling down from the road to the creek.  The falls are named after the creek, which in turn is named after a huge fir tree just down the road (see picture below).  The main section of the falls drops 18' and there are 9' worth of cascades above that as well, bringing the total height to 27'.  While not a very big waterfall, this one is easy to get to and is quite lovely.

DIRECTIONS - Take Highway 20 east to Concrete and turn right onto Concrete-Sauk Road.  Follow this road and turn onto Finney Creek Road (FR 17).  In 6 miles, the road turns from pavement to gravel.  Shortly after this, you will reach Big Fir Falls off to the right side of the road in a little gully.  You can climb down the hillside for a close up view fairly easily.
