UNCONFIRMED
This waterfall is known to exist but its stature and / or location have not yet been verified by the World Waterfall Database.
Douglas Falls is one of four named waterfalls located within the 5 kilometer long Nakimu Cave system in Glacier National Park. Information on this waterfall has been extremely difficult to come across - it could be an entirely subterranean waterfall or it could be found along a stream which drops into a sinkhole connected to the cave system. There is also a possibility that this is an older, historic name for another waterfall in the area known as Goat Falls, which is accessible from the surface, but we just don't know for sure. The exact location of this waterfall is not known (the coordinates listed are those provided by the Canadian Government and are thought to be approximate). Access to the Nakimu Caves is heavily restricted to a limited number of parties each year. It is not known whether Douglas Falls can be accessed without entering the caves, but bushwhacking in attempt to find the falls is not recommended without specific directions due to the potentially deadly terrain in the area and large population of Grizzly Bears which live in the Cougar Creek valley.
