Waterfalls Northwest: Drury Falls

Drury Falls is a tall, seasonal waterfall on Fall Creek that plunges over the rim of Tumwater Canyon across the Wenatchee River from US 2. The 455-foot upper tier is visible from the side of US 2 in the heart of Tumwater Canyon, about 3 miles east of Tumwater Campground or 6 miles west of Leavenworth. There is no parking where the view is best; park at a pullout about 500 feet away in either direction and walk along the side of the highway. The lower tiers are hidden in a narrow canyon; the only full view is from the summit of Tumwater Mountain.
