Our Responsibility
Waterfalls get closed when people are injured or ruin lands.

Please don't trespass, don't litter, and stay on the trail.
Warning: Waterfalls are dangerous - You aren't permitted to use this site unless you read, understand and accept the Website Disclaimer

I haven't visited this site. It is a creek-wide barrier cascade about 2 m high. It is about 1.5 km upstream of High Falls on Eel's Creek. It is also about 3km downstream from Hwy 28 at Haultain. I don't believe that there is a trail, and the easiest access is probably by portaging around High Falls and continuing upstream. If you find this falls, please let me know!

The driving directions lead to the parking area for High Falls on Eels Creek. These are provided for convenience for anyone that may wish to paddle upstream to the rapids.

NOTE: On mapsbyjeff.com, this waterfall is labelled as "The Ladder".
