Franklin Falls Waterfall Hike, Snoqualmie Pass, Washington
Franklin Falls is on Denny Creek between North Bend and Snoqualmie Pass on I-90 in Washington State. It is in the median area between the east and west bound lanes of the freeway in a section where the lanes are separated by a wide expanse of forest land.
We hiked from the trail head to Franklin Falls, about a mile, over a well groomed trail that featured very little difficulty.
We were there in mid-May so the water was flowing pretty heavily. As I understand, in the hot summer months, though the creek isn't as full, it's still a good time to visit these falls. Since you can hike right to the base of the falls, the cool spray from the waterfall is very refreshing on a hot day.
In this video, I share some photos that we took during our hike at Franklin Falls.

Snoqualmie Falls in Snoqualmie, Washington, near Seattle
Snoqualmie Falls is a beautiful, awesome falls that everyone who is in the Seattle area should visit. There are four different locations to see the falls, in addition to seeing the river below. I believe these are the falls that were featured in the television series, Twin Peaks.

Great Smoky Mountains National Park is a United States National Park and UNESCO World Heritage Site that straddles the ridgeline of the Great Smoky Mountains, part of the Blue Ridge Mountains, which are a division of the larger Appalachian Mountain chain.
It is the most visited national park in the United States. The border between Tennessee and North Carolina runs northeast to southwest through the centerline of the park. On its route from Maine to Georgia, the Appalachian Trail also passes through the center of the park. The park was chartered by the United States Congress in 1934 and officially dedicated by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt in 1940.
It encompasses 522,419 acres (816.28 sq mi; 211,415.47 ha; 2,114.15 km2), making it one of the largest protected areas in the eastern United States. The main park entrances are located along U.S. Highway 441 (Newfound Gap Road) at the towns of Gatlinburg, Tennessee, and Cherokee, North Carolina. It was the first national park whose land and other costs were paid for in part with federal funds; previous parks were funded wholly with state money or private funds.

Enormous ice circle spins in Washington river

A circle of ice was spotted spinning in the Middle Fork Snoqualmie River near North Bend, Washington, on January 7 2017.
An ice disc, ice circle, or ice pan is a natural phenomenon that occurs in slow moving water in cold climates.
Ice circles are thin and circular slabs of ice that rotate slowly in the water. It is believed that they form in eddy currents. It has been shown that existing ice discs can maintain their rotation due to melting. Ice discs have most frequently been observed in Scandinavia and North America, but they are occasionally recorded as far south as England and Wales. An ice disc was observed in Wales in December 2008 and another was reported in England in January 2009.An ice disc was observed on the Sheyenne River in North Dakota in December 2013. An ice circle of approximately 50 ft. in diameter was observed and photographed in Lake Katrine, New York on the Esopus Creek around January 23, 2014. In Idaho, extreme weather led to a rare sighting of an Ice disk on the Snake River on January 22, 2014.
An unusual natural phenomenon, ice disks occur in slow moving water in cold climates and can vary in size, with circles more than 15 metres (49 ft) in diameter observed.
Ice discs form on the outer bends in a river where the accelerating water creates a force called 'rotational shear', which breaks off a chunk of ice and twists it around. As the disc rotates, it grinds against surrounding ice — smoothing into a circle. A relatively uncommon phenomenon, one of the earliest recordings is of a slowly revolving disc spotted on the Mianus River and reported in an 1895 edition of Scientific American.
Ice Pans River specialist and geography professor Joe Desloges states that ice pans are surface slabs of ice that form in the center of a lake or creek, instead of along the water’s edge. As water cools, it releases heat that turns into 'frazil ice' that can cluster together into a pan-shaped formation. If an ice pan accumulates enough frazil ice and the current remains slow, the pan may transform into a 'hanging dam', a heavy block of ice with high ridges and a low centre.
