Upper Cooper Creek Falls is a scenic 12-foot drop found along Cooper Creek a couple hundred feet upstream from Cooper Creek Falls. Just like Cooper Creek Falls, this upper drop is broad with a high volume of water. It can be accessed by an initial steep bushwhack down the Garrett Creek drainage, followed by a creekwalk upstream along Cooper Creek.
