Sunset Falls, Waterfall observation point in Snohomish County, Washington, United States.
The South Fork Skykomish River forms a powerful 104-foot waterfall, creating a narrow chute that extends approximately 275 feet in length.
On May 30, 1926, performer Al Faussett executed a daring canoe descent of the falls, witnessed by hundreds of spectators at the event.
The waterfall region holds importance for Native American communities who used this location for traditional salmon fishing practices over generations.
The falls currently maintain restricted public access and are classified as a class 6 rapid, indicating extreme dangers for water activities.
The water velocity reaches 60 kilometers per hour through the chute, with specific formations causing water projections up to 30 feet outward.
