Madison Creek Falls, Waterfall in Olympic National Park, Washington
Madison Creek Falls creates a 76-foot vertical cascade of water flowing through a narrow channel before joining the Elwha River watershed.
The falls became more accessible after the removal of two Elwha River dams in 2014, restoring natural water flows and salmon migration patterns.
The Klallam people relied on the Elwha River system, including Madison Creek, as a primary source of salmon for their communities.
Visitors reach the falls through a 200-foot paved path from the parking area, making it suitable for wheelchairs and strollers.
The waterfall maintains a consistent flow rate of 15 cubic feet per second, creating a year-round display regardless of seasonal changes.
