Thompson Creek Falls Trail Description:
The trail to Thompson Creek Falls leaves from the campground. From the creek that runs through the campground, cross the highway and begin following the creek upstream to the falls. This is also the Mount Cline route, so you may see some hikers that look like they are off for a big adventure. The trail follows the creek, crossing it a few times for the first 0.7mi before reaching a junction. Stay left here, and continue following the creek. Continue on the trail that runs beside the creek until you begin to hear the roar of the falls. Make your way to the falls and enjoy their stunning natural beauty before turning back.
