Ki-a-Kuts Falls, Waterfall in Washington County, United States.
The 40-foot Ki-a-Kuts Falls cascades through a narrow basalt channel, forming a single drop into a pool along the Tualatin River.
A team of Tualatin Riverkeepers discovered the falls in 1993 during an exploration of the river, leading to its official recognition in 1999.
The United States Board on Geographic Names designated the falls to honor Chief Ki-a-Kuts, the final leader of the Atfalati Kalapuyan people.
Access requires navigating unmarked paths from Maple Creek Road Trailhead through dense forest and crossing creeks in Tillamook State Forest.
Located 1.5 miles from the Tualatin River source, the falls remained undocumented until 1993 due to its position behind a river bend.
