Quiet and secluded waterfall. My wife and I saw no one else the entire time we were there.

Photography Tips

The falls face west so mid to late afternoon would not be the best time for photography.

Since my wife frequently traveled to Seattle for work, she and I have explored Olympic NP many times. It’s one of our favorite places. You have probably been to Sol Duc Falls then. I hope you also were able to visit Oregon. If you like waterfalls, it’s a must.

That immediately looked like the area around Seattle. I visited some really nice waterfalls in Olympic National Park that looked quite similar. It's such a beautiful place on earth. Thank you for sharing these awesome travel details.
