Below is a Devon Fletcher Photo of Lower Silver Creek
Falls. This falls drops about 40 feet in
3 tiers. This photo shows 2 of the 3
tiers.
The Lower Silver Creek Gorge holds Lower
Silver Creek Falls along with count-less small falls and water-slides. This is a beautiful canyon and a fabulous
hike.

5 miles & park & hike – Downstream 2.5 miles to Lower Silver Creek
