From Wikipedia: Monkey Cage Falls is a 16-foot (4.9 m) waterfall that flows from Tye River just over Stevens Pass, approximately 1767 feet above sea level, located in the U.S. state of Washington. Access is usually approached with kayaks, a hiking trail leads from a parking area to Deception Falls upstream from which improvised trails lead to the edge of the Tye River with angled views of the waterfall.
