Lewis River Falls — Tuesday, May. 4, 2021

My wife and I plus pup Buddy hiked this beautiful trail on May 4th and the falls were full and beautiful. Surprised how full the river was since the trail was so dry. We started at the Wright Meadow TH just a little south of the Lower Falls Parking area. Trail was in great condition with just a few rocky areas, no obstacles at all. We hiked to the Lower, Middle and Upper falls as well as a short walk on Copper Creek falls.

At the start you walk through a low wetland area for about a mile, thought this was Wright Meadow but it's not. There appears to have been a few buildings on this route and maybe an old orchard. The aroma along the trail was like perfume with the hot sun bringing the needle aromas out. It was a warm day, unusual for this early, and only saw 10 people, all very friendly and smiling at our luck to catch such a nice day in early May. There are a number of stairways leading to the river from the trail plus a number of short paths for riverside enjoyment.
