Wells Creek Falls : ウィキペディア英語版 | Wells Creek Falls
Wells Creek Falls is the generally used name for a waterfall on Wells Creek in the Mount Baker Wilderness in Washington. The falls are located several thousand feet above Wells Creek’s confluence with Bar Creek.〔(Northwest Waterfall Survey: Wells Creek Falls )〕〔(Aaron’s Waterfall World: Wells Creek Falls )〕 == Characteristics ==
One of the better known falls on the slopes of Mount Baker, the falls are a single plunge of within a small gorge which the falls mark the beginning of. Several thousand feet downstream from the falls, the creek passes under Wells Creek Road & immediately is joined by Wells Creek’s only major tributary, Bar Creek. A large culvert, rather than a bridge crosses the creek along Wells Creek Road. The falls are occasionally confused with much larger Mazama Falls, which is two kilometers upstream. Ironically enough, Mazama Falls is officially named while Wells Creek Falls isn’t despite the fact almost nobody has ever seen Mazama Falls up close & Wells Creek Falls is regularly visited by people driving up Wells Creek Road.
