About this deal

Therefore, I have to believe that it would be one of the most photographed subjects in Mt Rainier National Park as well.

From the trailhead, you’ll start climbing immediately. You’ll enter the forest, and a quarter of a mile later, you’ll reach a sturdy wooden footbridge that crosses over Van Trump Creek just above Christine Falls. Another waterfall along the South Fork of the Snoqualmie River, just a short 40-minute drive from Seattle is Twin Falls. Directions: From the Nisqually entrance of the park, drive 10.7 miles, just past the Comet Falls trailhead to a small parking area. A short set of stairs leads to the falls overlook. Considered to be less known than some others on this list, it’s a great place to picnic and find a little tranquility among blooming rhododendrons. The main route follows the Comet Falls Trail from the trailhead up past Christine and Bloucher Falls before arriving at Comet Falls. Going Further to Van Trump Park or Mildred PointThere was a short paved trail leading to the lower viewpoint where we were able to see the main tier of the Christine Falls plunging beneath the Nisqually-Paradise Road as seen in the photograph above.

There’s really only one way up to Comet Falls, although there are a couple of extensions you can do to add distance to your hike and get truly off the beaten path, which is kind of a hard thing to accomplish in a place as popular as Mount Rainier National Park.The answer is yes. It's almost impossible to tell someone who hasn't read it what Banville's prizewinning novel The Sea is "about", but the problem with Christine Falls is saying anything at all without ruining a compelling novel set in the redolent, boozy, dank, stifling Dublin of the 1950s, a city dominated by a tight-lipped and even more tightly networked mafia made up of a few prominent clans, civil war diehards, the transatlantic diaspora and the tentacular arms of the Catholic church.

Falls Trail: The Best Waterfall At Mount Rainier? The Comet Falls Trail: The Best Waterfall At Mount Rainier?

Dropping over 300 feet, this waterfall in the vicinity of Mount Rainier is a glacier-carved feast for the eyes. Just be sure to make a day of it and explore all that college town Bellingham has to offer – nature and otherwise! – while you’re there. Boeing Creek Mount Rainier’s endless sights continue with Christine Falls, a stop boasting easy-to-get-to views that’ll charm even the most seasoned outdoorsman. A suspenseful, professional-grade north country procedural whose heroine, a deft mix of compassion and attitude, would be welcome to return and tie up the gaping loose end Box leaves. The unrelenting cold makes this the perfect beach read.But just because you’ve seen it on the small screen doesn’t mean you should skip out on the real-life experience. Christine Falls was a conspicuous waterfall that we stumbled upon after missing the trailhead for the nearby Comet Falls. If you are considering continuing up the trail beyond Comet Falls to Van Trump Park (which has excellent wildflowers in season), plan on the end of July or early August. Actually, John Banville has glanced down these mean streets before. The Book of Evidence (1989) played seductively with elements of the murder mystery as well as a scandalous real-life case of that period. This time the question is whether an author famous (or notorious) for novels in which nothing memorable happens, memorably, can keep control of his craft through the hazardous shallows and rapids of Genre Gulch. OK, he's a superb stylist, but can he plot? The climb from Comet Falls up to Van Trump Park is only an extra mile one-way (two miles round trip), but that mile is BRUTAL. You’ll need to climb 1,000 feet over the course of that mile to get up into the alpine meadows of Van Trump Park. Make sure you have plenty of food, water, and sun protection.
