 Asbestos Creek Falls, photographer Charlie Duncan Photography Asbestos Creek Falls is an easy waterfall to
view. You can literally drive right through the drainage of this
waterfall as it flows down to Clear Creek. This tiered waterfall is 950 feet high with
its single highest drop being 150 feet high. It is hard to see all of
the waterfall from the road due to the twist and bends in the gorge in
which it flows. The lower portion of the falls that you can see from the road is about 300 feet.
