Upper Warm Creek Falls is a pretty cascading drop located on the North Branch of Warm Creek. It drops a total of 96' as the creek leaves a meadowy cirque and begins its drop towards Warm Creek Falls itself. When I visited the creek was low and the lighting was horrible, but I think one could get some really nice pictures with the correct conditions. There's really no reason to visit this waterfall unless you happen to be down in the upper part of Warm Creek Valley for God-knows-what-reason and happen to pass near it.

Realistically the waterfall I call Marmot Ridge Falls should probably be considered the true Upper Warm Creek Falls, so if I can come up with a different name for this one they will change.
