Van Trump Creek
Van Trump Creek, also called Van Trump Falls Creek or the Van Trump Fork of the Nisqually River, is a creek in Pierce County, Washington. It is a tributary of the Nisqually River, joining the river just above the mouth of the Paradise River. The creek is known for having several well known waterfalls along its course.
== Course ==
The creek originates at the toe of the Van Trump Glacier and flows south. Just west of Mildred Point, the creek drops over small Upper Comet Falls.〔http://www.waterfallsnorthwest.com/nws/waterfall.php?num=1421〕 Shortly below that, the creek drops over the largest and best known of the falls on the creek, Comet Falls.〔http://www.waterfallsnorthwest.com/nws/waterfall.php?st=WA&num=893〕 Shortly below Comet Falls, Falls Creek joins Van Trump Creek. The creek drops over another major waterfall just below the mouth of Falls Creek, Van Trump Falls.〔http://www.waterfallsnorthwest.com/nws/waterfall.php?st=WA&num=895〕 After dropping over the falls, the creek enters a deep canyon, which extends almost all the way to its mouth. About halfway through the gorge, the creek drops over dangerous-to-access Lower Van Trump Falls〔http://www.waterfallsnorthwest.com/nws/waterfall.php?st=WA&num=896〕 before exiting the canyon by dropping over majorly altered Christine Falls.〔http://www.waterfallsnorthwest.com/nws/waterfall.php?st=WA&num=897〕 The creek then continues south to where it meets the Nisqually.
