Depot Creek Falls, Cascade waterfall in North Cascades National Park, Washington, United States
Depot Creek Falls descends 967 feet through a single drop and extends into a long slide, reaching a width of 125 feet at its base.
The waterfall received its name from an old trading outpost that operated near the mouth of Depot Creek during the early settlement period.
The falls represent a natural boundary within North Cascades National Park, drawing attention to water conservation and environmental protection efforts.
Visitors need to access the falls through Depot Creek Forest Service Road from Canada, followed by an 8-mile hike to reach the viewing point.
Three substantial glaciers on Mount Redoubt's north face feed the waterfall, generating a water flow between 300 and 500 cubic feet per second.
