Proxy Falls is a beautiful easy hike off of McKenzie Scenic Byway 242 which is only open for a few months out of the year (usually mid-June to early November, but it depends on snowfall). To see if the highway to the trailhead is open go to www.tripcheck.com. For how busy this hike is in the summer months, the trailhead does not offer a lot of parking. There is space for about 15 – 20 cars, and there is a picnic table, as well as a men’s and women’s pit toilet.
