McDowell Creek County Park

McDowell Creek Park

I've been to this waterfall more than any other. I grew up near here and started photographing the falls in this park when I was in high school...

This is a pretty easy hike to this falls, there are two more in the same area but this was the only one I could get to with ease. I was surprised there was this much snow around the falls. It was a nice addition to the shot.

While not really the cornerstone of McDowell Creek Falls Park, Royal Terrace Falls is the best of the four waterfalls featured within. The falls occur where Fall Creek drops over the valley wall in an eye catching stair-step style fountain like display. Measurement of this falls has its drop to be 119 feet.
