Staircase Falls is one of several falls that drop off the cliffs north of the Alpental Ski Area.  This one stands out from the other smaller falls because of its unique stair step appearance.  Views from the base are fairly easy to come by if you take the trail across the road from the parking lot and follow it up a short distance.

DIRECTIONS - Drive east along I-90 to the Snoqualmie Pass Exit #52.  Turn left towards the Alpental Ski Area and park in the lot.  The falls can be seen from here, furthest to the left and obvious from their stair step appearance.
