Sunset Falls is the final of the three waterfalls on the South Fork Skykomish River. The falls drop 104 feet in a long, narrow, powerful chute. The river is thought to attain speeds of 60 kilometres an hour and the chute is nearly 300 feet long. In high water, because of several potholes in the falls, water can sometimes shoot out as much as 30 feet. ()
