Twin Lakes Falls is a waterfall in Kittitas County, Washington, in the North Cascades region, with a total height of about 250 feet. It lies about 19.7 miles east of Tanner and roughly 38.5 miles southeast of Sammamish as the crow flies.
At 250 feet it stands in the tallest quarter of Washington’s 941 waterfalls with a recorded height, ranking 154th; the typical Washington waterfall is about 82 feet. The water comes down as a cascade, descending over a series of rock steps rather than in a single drop.
The North Cascades are a wilderness of jagged peaks, glaciers and deep, forested valleys of western hemlock, silver fir and Douglas fir, with some of the heaviest snowfall in the country. Meltwater from glaciers and snowfields pours down thousands of feet of cliffs in countless cascades and horsetail falls.
