| | Alsea Falls | Waterfalls of the Pacific Northwest |
 | | Though not terribly impressive, Alsea Falls, where the otherwise calm Alsea River takes a spill down smooth rocks into a nice swimming hole, is a rather scenic waterfall. |
 | | Surrounding the falls, especially when the river is lower, are smooth rock slabs that, on clear days, attract sunbathers and swimmers like ants to sugar. |
 | | However, after the initial 10 foot plunge, the river slams onto a solid ledge before sliding down to the base of the falls, so it could be very dangerous to try. |
