Merriman Falls

I was headed out to Ruby Beach with a couple of friends for an Earth Day day trip when we decided to take a short (which ended up being an all day) detour to Quinault and drive out to Graves Creek Campground. We were taken by surprise when we saw the falls right off to the side of the road. They were bigger and much more picturesque than I had expected. It was a wet day so the rocks at the base of the falls were still climbable, but definitely slippery. We spent quite a while enjoying the falls and climbing around to get different views. Definitely a worthwhile roadside stop!
