Upper Morowitz Falls is a beautiful little falls that not too many people know of. Morowitz Creek tumbles 37' in a bowtie pattern into a small alcove located right next to the road. While small in statue, this is a very pretty waterfall that is easy to get to. I suspect there may be an additional waterfall located a short distance upstream but I haven't checked it out yet. If you are planning on visiting Rainbow Falls be sure to continue up the road to this gem as well.

DIRECTIONS - Follow
the directions to Lower Morowitz Falls.
Continue driving up the road, taking the left at the fork in the road. After a while
you will pass Rainbow Falls. Continue on for another
half mile or so until you see the falls on your right. A few hundred feet up the
road is supposed to be a great view of Mt. Shuksan, but it's been cloudy both times I've
been here. NEARBY WATERFALLS - Blueberry Falls, Boulder Camp Falls, Lava Divide Falls, Lower Morowitz Falls, Park Glacier Falls, Rainbow Falls, Snawes Falls |
