Explorer Falls — Saturday, Feb. 26, 2022

North Cascades > Mountain Loop Highway
Explorer Falls

The trail to Explorer Falls now follows logging roads. There's no signage or indication that you're in the right place or going the right way, so have a map or at least look at one first. Follow the road up from the lot and then take your first real road to the right. You can hear the falls from the road and there's a very small trail that takes you to them. Due to ice, I didn't look for the trail to the top. Had the road and the falls practically to myself. Passed 2 people on the way in and 6 others on the way out. 

Parking is limited, but Google will get you there (Snohomish

Good call. It's scary enough looking over the edge at the top - even more so standing on ice.
