A pair of waterfalls is to be found in the Strawberry Mountains Wilderness
Area of Malheur National Forest. Directions to this area, whose cataracts
consist of Strawberry Falls, USGS Strawberry Mtn (1996), and
Slide Falls, USGS Strawberry Mtn (1996 nl), can be found in "Exploring Oregon's
Wild Areas", pp. 176-179.
Emigrant Creek Falls (u), USGS Bear Canyon Butte (1992 ns), is located next to Falls Campground in Malheur National Forest. It reportedly descends only a few feet.
If not on restricted property, Upper Falls, USGS Keys Creek (1992),
may be accessible along Crooked River, but probably not Lower Falls, USGS Committee Creek (1992). Maps suggest unlikely entry to
North Fork Wolf Falls (u), USGS Tucker Flat (1984 nl),
Fall Creek Falls (u), USGS Mount Vernon (1983 nl),
Chloride Falls (u), USGS Bourne (1984 nl),
North Fork Falls (u), USGS Bourne (1984 nl),
Rock Creek Falls (u), USGS Bourne (1984 nl), and
Upper Rock Creek Falls (u), USGS Bourne (1984 nl).
