Along the 112 that goes around Lake Crescent small waterfalls pop up everywhere during the spring melt off.

Faraway Friday-Milford Sound
Milford Sound-New Zealand is amazing ….even if you can only see the bottom 300ft! It was so stormy and foggy that this was all we could see, even though Mitre Peak soars to 5,551 ft. But because of the storm, almost every wall had a spectacular waterfall.
Madison Falls
I love the logs at the bottom of this falls. Not too often that you see a log that curved. The walk to this falls is only about a 1/4 mile.
Madison Falls
This is one of the falls on the Olympic Waterfall Trail. It is a very short 1/4 mile fairly even walk to the viewpoint. I just LOVED this wild curved log that apparently has been at the bottom for almost a year now.
Marymere Falls
This is only the very bottom of the falls going into the stream. I forgot how little of the falls you can see from the bottom. Since I tore my knee out, just the walk to the falls was all she wrote. So I took a picture of the trailing end. You’ll just have to go see it for yourself! It’s very impressive-especially during the spring run off.
Faraway Friday-Milford Sound
It was soooooooo rainy that we couldn’t even enter the sound for two hours. When we did it seemed that ALL the walls were waterfalls of varying sizes. It was beautiful but we could only see the first layer of the imposing mountains…
I can only imagine what a site it must be.
All about scale…
Milford Sound has soaring mountains and waterfalls (these are just foothills). But look to the bottom right and see the 65ft boat looking like a little ant.
Can you find the 50ft ship on the left?
