Morgan Falls is a tiered waterfall in the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest, Ashland County, Wisconsin, falling about 65 feet in two drops.
The falls
The water drops in two tiers, a lidar survey putting the taller of the two at about 55 feet. The World Waterfall Database places the fall on an unnamed tributary to Morgan Creek rather than on Morgan Creek itself. The shaded gorge along Morgan Creek supports rare plants, including the state-threatened Braun's hollyfern, though the falls themselves lie outside the boundary of the forest's formal Research Natural Area there.
Getting there
The falls sit within the Morgan Falls-St. Peter's Dome Recreation Area of the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest. An accessible boardwalk-and-bridge trail leads to the falls, nearly 0.75 mile each way; the parking area was relocated and the trail rebuilt after the 2016 flood.
On site
The boardwalk-and-bridge route was built as an accessible trail to the falls.
