Toketee Falls
Nature
Toketee Falls is a two-stage, 120-foot waterfall on Oregon’s North Umpqua River at its meeting with the Clearwater River, east of Roseburg near Route 138 and northwest of Crater Lake’s north entrance. Its name, from Chinook Jargon, means “pretty” or “graceful” and was officially adopted in 1916 over Ireland Falls and Toketie Falls. Cut into ancient columnar basalt, the falls are known for a relatively dependable flow because they are fed by the North Umpqua rather than a small seasonal creek. That flow has been altered by an upstream PacifiCorp dam, which created Toketee Lake and diverts water for hydroelectric power.
