Description
Palouse Falls lies on the Palouse River, about 4 miles upstream of the confluence with the Snake River in southeast Washington. The falls are 198 ft. high; the canyon at the falls is 377 ft. deep, exposing a large cross-section of the Columbia River Basalt Group. These falls and the canyon downstream comprise an important feature of the channeled scablands created by the great Missoula Floods that swept periodically across eastern Washington and across the Columbia River Plateau during the Pleistocene epoch. The 105-acre Palouse Falls State Park is located at the falls, protecting this part of the uniquely scenic area.
