Christine Falls is a waterfall on Van Trump Creek in Pierce County, Washington. The falls are Шаблон:Convert feet high and are best known for the Christine Falls Bridge spanning the lower drop. The upper drop is Шаблон:Convert high and is almost impossible to film in tandem with the oft-photographed Шаблон:Convert lower tier. The lower tier is probably one of the most commonly photographed locations in the Mount Rainier area.[1]
The falls were named in honor of Christine Van Trump, the daughter of P. B. Van Trump. In 1889 Christine, then nine years old, accompanied her father on an ascent of Mount Rainier, as far as her strength would allow. She made it to the Шаблон:Convert level, even though she had a crippling nervous disorder.[2]
Debris flows of 2001
The debris flows of 2001 scoured the creek's banks clean of plant life, and altered the falls. It took a large chunk of rock and dumped it into the upper tier of the falls, altering it a bit.
