DIRECTIONS - From Eatonville, head south on Mashel Ave and then turn left onto Center St E. The Bud Blancher Trailhead is on the right in about 1/2 a mile. Follow the trail for about 1.5 miles until you see the sign pointing to the "Lower Falls". Follow this steep trail downhill to the falls.

I've been to Little Mashel Falls several times, but for some reason, the only picture I can find of any of the waterfalls is the one above. If I can figure out where on the computer the others are kept, I will add pages for them as well. Curious.

Anyway, Lower Little Mashel Falls is the final in a series of waterfalls on the Little Mashel River near Eatonville. here the river spreads out to around 80' wide, depending on the volume of water present, and drops 39' down a craggy, rounded cliff in an attractive fashion. While not as prominent as its upstream brother, this one is probably the prettiest of the bunch.
