DIRECTIONS - From Austin Pass near the end of Hwy 542, like to Lake Ann, about 4 miles each way. This waterfall can be seen dropping into the Shuksan Creek Valley across from the lake.

Curtis Glacier Falls tumbles out of the Upper Curtis Glacier and falls into the Lower Curtis Glacier. From the Ptarmigan Ridge Trail, the waterfall looks like a trickle of water, but a closer view makes it look a little more impressive. Either way, it's basically an afterthought when looking at the massive face of Mt. Shuksan.
