Panther Creek Falls, Tiered waterfall in Skamania County, United States.
Panther Creek Falls is a tiered waterfall with two main drops that cascade down rocky cliffs in a narrow valley. The water splits and flows in different directions as it drops, creating an unusual pattern across the rock face.
The area became a popular destination for those seeking dramatic water views in the Wind River region. Development of viewing areas occurred over time, though later modifications prioritized environmental protection over visitor infrastructure.
The site draws photographers and nature enthusiasts who document the seasonal changes of water flow patterns through the Wind River Valley region.
You can reach the falls by traveling north on the main highway through the valley and then turning onto smaller roads toward the creek. The final approach on foot is relatively short, though the ground can be muddy or slippery when wet.
The stream splits at a bend where part of the water rushes over the edge while the rest flows into a natural channel below. This splitting effect changes depending on water levels, making the appearance different from season to season.
