ROUSH CREEK FALLS

RATING - 70.0

VR - 6.0 (Med)               HR - 11.0                  SR - 4/20

TYPE OF APPROACH - Roadside

DIFFICULTY - Very Easy

LOCATION - Cascade River Road

TYPE - Segmented

HEIGHT - 1000'+

WIDTH - 800'

Roush Creek drops in five separate streams before combining near the bottom of the falls.  Each of these streams falls well over 1000' feet along the way.  I plan on bushwhacking to the base of this falls in the future but this will likely be a major undertaking.  For now, just enjoy the view from the trailhead until I find out for sure if the base is doable.

 

A look through the trees

 

DIRECTIONS - Take HWY 20 east to the Cascade River Road.  Follow the road to the Cascade Pass Trailhead in 23 miles.  If you look west, you can see Roush Creek Falls pouring down below the Triad.  A through-the-trees view can be had a short distance before crossing over the North Fork for the last time.
