Proxy Falls

It is both simple and challenging to photograph here. Those attempting to capture the enormity and grandeur of Proxy Falls will have a difficult time, however, the creatively inclined will find lots of interesting compositions to take home. Proxy Falls, like Ramona Falls and the lesser Clearwater Falls previously discussed in this book, is visually appealing because of the peculiar course the water takes on its descent.

The projecting rock appears to divide this single waterfall into many tiny waterfalls. Please keep in mind that Proxy Falls is only open seasonally, from early June to mid-November. Winter circumstances make it hard to visit for the remainder of the year. Proxy Falls path #3532 is located in the Willamette National Forest. Parking is available, however, a permit is required. The 1.5-mile circular walk to Proxy Falls waterfall is graded simple, although it is not ADA accessible.
