Coulee Corridor Scenic Byway
Dry Falls, WA

At 400 feet high and 3.5 miles wide, Dry Falls stands as a silent testimony to the power of the Ice Age Floods. It is known as a 'recessional waterfall' - it eroded its way backwards from an original point near Soap Lake to its current site some fifteen miles north. At its peak, Dry Falls was ten times larger than Niagara Falls. From the overlook the traveler looks down on small quiet lakes and can see swallows and swifts doing their aerial dances.
