Location

Double Falls is the tallest of the waterfalls in Silver Falls State Park. It is located along the Trail of Ten Falls, along Canyon Trail, a few yards from Lower North Falls.[2] Double Falls is not a product of Silver Creek but one of its tributaries, Hullt Creek located a short distance upstream from where it merges with the North Fork Silver Creek.
