A dam swallowed the drop that gave Thompson Falls its name, so the waterfall walking follows the side creeks now. Fern Falls tops the list at 2.5 miles round trip and 400 feet of climbing. Cascade Falls runs two moderate miles. The rest barely qualify as hikes. Graves Creek sits a tenth of a mile out, Rambiker just past it at two tenths, and Vermilion, Lost Creek, and Shadow each need half a mile. Dogs come along nearly everywhere on this list of seven.
