DIRECTIONS - Hike out the Thunder Creek Trail for around six miles. Just before reaching McAllister Camp, you should hear the falls from the trail. It's a short, very easy bushwhack over to the creek and a view of the falls.

Massive Thunder "Creek" tears though an impressive little waterfall in a series of three small drops totaling 52' in height. It's not a fantastic waterfall, but it is pretty incredible seeing the huge creek drops through the granitic gorge. The waters of Thunder Creek are a beautiful green color and that color shows itself in the falls.
