    If you're anywhere near Grand Coulee Dam in central Washington, you should make time to visit Dry Falls State Park. It is one of the most spectacular places I've ever seen, geologically speaking. The geology and history are so interesting, and the views are amazing. Stop in at the visitor's center too; there's always a ranger available to answer questions and provide more information. The walkway along the canyon rim gets you close to the view for some great photographs; I like the catwalk that goes out to a spire of rock, completely separate from the cliff. In season, there's usually a food stand open; don't miss the huckleberry ice cream.

    We drove by Dry Falls sort of on accident and were excited to learn more. It was 100+ degrees out but worth the trip. It is an incredible view with lots of history. The visitors center was very informative although small. My kids love to learn about history and nature and this was the perfect match of both.The ice cream at the snack booth was great and the bathrooms are air conditioned which may seem like no big deal but it was a nice break from the heat.

    Don't drive by without stopping at the visitors center. If you do, you will miss one of the most spectacular sites ever. 3 1/2 times the size of Niagara Falls with no water flowing. Be sure to take the time to go in the visitors center as well, they have a movie running that tells some of the history involved. Since this visit, I have talked with many local folks - many have heard of this place, but never stopped. Shame!

    My dad is a geologist and has told me about this since my youth.. Having seen it now in person I wonder why we never visited! An absolute must see for anyone living in this area, or interested in Glacial Lake Missoula

    This is possibly the most interesting geological attraction since the Grand Canyon. They play a movie that was made by the U of W that tells of the origins of the area. I found it fascinating and informative. The pictures do not show justice to the immensity of it. Well worth touring. you can find it on the Scenic Byway #3 the Coulee Corridor.

    Stopped here saw the falls it was pretty cool looking and the visitor center had some interesting facts to check out. Had restrooms. Also had concession stand with good eats to grab too if your hungry! Looking is free!:-)

    My husband I visited the falls over Fourth of July holiday. You have to visit the interpretive center to understand how the falls were created. Absolutely fascinating. The center is small but informative. The views are pretty and there is a small picnic area. The little look out bridge is a great place to take some pictures. Really loved learning why the terrain is the way it is in eastern washington.

    There are caves located somewhere near by, but there was no one who seemed to know how to get to them.

    My husband wanted to see this ,and I did not care one way or another so I went a head and made a point to go for him.WOW! This place is beautiful and the pictures do not do it justice. This is really as impressive as the grand canyon. Be sure you stop at the visitor center .While we were there there was a dust storm, which they said was not common .When we pulled into the visitor center the view was phenomenal! Then minutes later we could see nothing but red dust ,it was really cool after about 45 minutes the storm passed. Being stuck there was not bad as there were food carts ,and the visitor center has a lot to look at .We loved this place.if I had very small children or pets I would literally keep them on a leash as the cliffs are really scary and I could imagine losing one over the side!

    Stopped at this attraction enroute to the Coulee Dam. I think this location was more impressive then the dam. The history behind these falls is astounding! Can you imagine if these falls were still in existence today?? Great parking area and information centre. The views are impressive no matter where you are, I especially like the little overhanging area. Don't miss this attraction if you're anywhere close...

    If you haven't seen this before, it's a must to see. The videos they have for sale in the gift shop are available on YouTube, too.

    A drive north of Moses Lake, WA took us through the Pot Holes States Park and to the Dry Falls which would dwarf Niagara Falls if it were still active. We learned that the Falls occurred during the Ice Age when Glacier Lake Missoula began to melt and moved towards the sea. It totally blocked portions of the Columbia River. A very interesting visit about what formed the landscape in Eastern Washington.

    This is a well done interpretive center that does a fantastic job providing history of how the great floods carved out a large swath of the state. The views from the center are fantastic and there's even a small bistro outside that provides limited food and beverages. Definitely worth the stop to educate yourself and take a break from driving.

    Water mixed with sediments can alter and carve out amazing wonders around the world. This is one of them.

    Dry Falls is worth a stop, especially at the Information center which tells the story of this amazing site. Very awe-inspiring story. View is beautiful and if you want to fish, there is a turn-off to Dry Lake in the Sun Lakes State Park.
