 Stickney
Falls is a somewhat disappointing waterfall that drops into Olney Creek
Valley from the south side. It's a nice waterfall, but the large cliff
above the falls led me to believe there was a large upper tier above.
Unfortunately, there is not. The waterfall drops 55' in three tiers:
a 28' plunge, a 21' tall fan, and a 6' little cascade. Below that the
creek continues to drop - sometimes over bedrock, sometimes over boulders -
but I elected not to include those drops in to height. The waterfall
can also be seen distantly from the high road on the north side of the
valley but from there it certainly isn't very impressive. |

DIRECTIONS - From Olney
Valley Falls, continue upstream for a few hundred feet until you see
this creek dropping in from the south side. Scramble up through the
brushy boulder field to a clear view of the falls. NEARBY WATERFALLS - Emerald Grotto Falls, Golden Pool Falls, Olney Valley Falls |
