Wy'east Falls (also Wyeast Falls or Wy East Falls) is a waterfall on a small tributary of Eagle Creek in Hood River County, Oregon, U.S.

The waterfall is formed by Wy'East Creek, a spring-fed stream that plunges 140 feet (43 m) over the Eagle Creek basalt formation. The creek cuts through a narrow and steep ravine and spills off a basalt ledge, plunging in a thin sheet about 10 feet (3.0 m) wide, into a shallow, gravelly pool. The creek then flows for about 300 feet (91 m) before emptying into Eagle Creek shortly downstream of Tunnel Falls.
