| DIRECTIONS - Head north on Highway 203 from Duvall. In a couple of miles, the falls can be seen high up on the hillside to the right of the highway. Drive past the falls and turn onto a small, dirt road next to a farm (it looks like a driveway but it's not). Follow the road behind the barn and drive until you cross over the creek. | |

McCauley Falls reminds
me of a sort of uglier, smaller version of Waukeena Falls in the Columbia Gorge. The
falls drop down and then run over a very pretty series of rocks and boulders before
running under the road. Getting close up views requires whacking through a
never-ending mess of blackberry bushes. Only the bottom 50' or so of the falls can
be seen from the base and I haven't attempted to climb above that yet.
