Here is the standard view of 550 ft. Grouse Falls, from the Overlook viewpoint. It is certainly a spectacular waterfall, even when viewing it from across the canyon, a half-mile away.

I arrived here at about sunrise. It is an hour and a half drive from my home, and I was up at 4AM to get here in time. I was making great time until I got to within a 1 minute drive from the trailhead parking area. Two big trees were down in the middle of the road. It was a very narrow section of road, and so I had to turn my big gas guzzling SUV around to go back. I felt like I was in that scene from Austin Powers, when he was trying to turn his cart around in that narrow hallway. Well, I think I did a bit better job than he did. I parked the SUV along the side of the road, and walked the rest of the way.
