Maidenhair Falls. The trail crosses the Wynoochee River West Branch on a sturdy footbridge at this point (a little east of the Hiking Project's blue line - the location matches the white trail shown on the base map).

These forests were lush with sword fern (shown here) as well as deer fern, maidenhair fern, coralroot, bleeding heart, corydalis, bunchberry, twinflower, pipsissewa, and other native plants.
