Deception Falls Nature Trail

 We stopped west of Stevens Pass at Deception Falls to hike to the falls and around the 1/2 mile nature trail loop.

 On the east side of the parking area is a short trail over Deception Creek to the falls which are located on the other side of the highway.

 A short walk under the highway leads to a viewpoint of Deception Falls. There was a lot of water in the falls this morning.

 We walked around the nature trail loop counter clockwise.
