Others
The lower Rogue River cuts through the Klamath Mountains portion of the Coast Range, creating a 2,000-foot-deep canyon.  A 35-mile stretch of it is designated a Wild River, a federal classification intended to provide river recreation in a primitive setting and to preserve the natural, untamed integrity of the river and its surrounding environment.  The following additional waterfalls and rapids reportedly can be found along this portion of the river, either by hiking or rafting: Upper Black Bar Falls and Lower Black Bar Falls, both USGS Bunker Creek (1989); Kelsey Falls, USGS Kelsey Peak (1989 ns); Tate Creek Falls, USGS Marial (1989 nl); and Flora Dell Falls, USGS Illahe (1989 ns).  Access is also available to rafters, but they will have to hike to see Dulog Falls, USGS Kelsey Peak (1989 ns) and Fall Creek Falls, USGS Marial (1989).

Several more waterfalls are located in other drainages to the south of the eastern portion of the Rogue River Canyon. A Siskiyou National Forest trail is documented as going to Silver Falls, USGS York Butte (1989). Shown on the topographic map next to a road is Briggs Creek Falls (u), USGS Chrome Ridge (1989 nl).

According to their topographic maps, accessibility is unlikely to Taylor Creek Falls, USGS Onion Mtn (1989); Secret Creek Falls (u), USGS Onion Mtn (1989 nl); North Silver Creek Falls (u) and East Indigo Creek Falls (u), both USGS Hobson Horn (1989 nl); and Schoolmarm Creek Falls (u), USGS Galice (1989 nl).
