Waterfall Safety and Common Sense

Van Trump Falls is a waterfall that I’m giving special attention to because we nearly confused it with Comet Falls. If not for our prior research before going on this hike, we very well could have ended the Comet Falls hike prematurely!

Anyways, the waterfall you see pictured at the top of this page is the uppermost waterfall that we saw on Van Trump Creek along the Comet Falls trail. It might also be informally known as Upper Van Trump Falls.

The author of our Pacific Northwest Waterfalls guide (Gregory Plumb) also gave names to the cascades we had noticed on Van Trump Creek further downstream from the falls pictured above. We had noticed them during our Comet Falls hike but didn’t realize they were given names. He called them Lower and Middle Van Trump Falls, but to be honest, there were so many cascades on that creek that it was hard to tell which one was which.
