Moulton Falls is the smallest of the five named waterfalls along the East Fork Lewis River, but also the easiest to access. The falls flume down a narrow trough, dropping over a series of potholes for about 10 vertical feet before the river mellows. When the East Fork runs high the falls swallow themselves up pretty well and it becomes more of a long rushing rapid than a waterfall, so if one is pressed for time, I would suggest skipping this waterfall and seeking out the better falls in the area.
- Moulton Falls is the Official name of this waterfall.
From Battle Ground follow SR 503 north for 5 1/2 miles to NE Lucia Falls Road and turn right. Moulton Falls County Park will be encountered 8 1/4 miles down NE Lucia Falls Road on the right-hand side. Alternatively one can reach this site by driving south from Yacolt for 2 3/4 miles. A flight of steps leads to the rocks adjacent to the top of the falls.
