My intent was to visit Murhutt Falls (further up the Duckabush), but the snow was a little too much for my 2WD Mazda Sedan to make it much further up the Duckabush River Road than the Trailhead for Ranger Hole, so Ranger Hole it was! There were a few cars there around noon, and only saw half a dozen folks while walking out to the River. The snow contrasted beautifully with all of the greenery, and there was lots of water & some snow on the trail but it was slushy enough that micro spikes would not have helped much, if at all. Once you make it out to the “Hole”, there is an amazing aqua-turquoise color in the water right below the falls. It is quite the payoff for such a short walk from the trailhead!
