DIRECTIONS - From Mt. Baker Highway turn onto Glacier Creek Road. Roosevelt Falls can be seen from a large pullout just before the Heliotrope Ridge Trailhead. Closer views can be had from near the end of the trail.

The Roosevelt Glacier ends and Glacier Creek begins. Roosevelt Falls is the series of falls that dump off the toe of the glacier. While the mountain views over-shadow this great waterfall, it still is impressive to see. The volume and shape of the falls can vary dramatically depending on how much ice is melting at any given time.
