Palouse Falls — Thursday, Jul. 10, 2025

Eastern Washington > Palouse and Blue Mountains
Small falls upstream from the main falls (wide angle)

I managed 0.9 miles walking the short loop upstream from the main falls as well as along the viewpoints near the parking.  We were never far from the river on the loop.

The upstream loop runs very close to the cliff edge in a few places without protection although there are safe trail choices.  Be careful with young ones!  Nearer the parking there are fences.

There was plenty of parking on Thursday.  Bugs did not bother but were present.  The wind probably helped.
