This is a small, but very pretty waterfall that occurs where the stream from Dodds Cleaver joins with Bar Creek.  The stream is pretty small, so I wouldn't recommend wandering up the creek bed to view it, but if you happen to be heading up Bar Creek for some reason, you will pass right by it.  There appears to be a much more substantial waterfall further upstream, but getting to it is likely very difficult.
DIRECTIONS -  Take the Mt Baker Highway east and turn right onto Wells Creek Road.  Follow it for around 6 miles to the bridge over Bar Creek and park.  Head upstream for about 1 mile to where the falls can be seen dropping into Bar Creek from the right.
