Oregon's Waterfalls: Multnomah Falls

  • The first full day I was in Portland last month we took a nice drive up the Colombia River Gorge to check out the sights.  Along the way we stopped at a few waterfalls, including the ones featured here; Multnomah Falls, Horsetail Falls, Wahkeena Falls, and Latourell Falls.  It rained much of the day, and it had been raining a lot prior to our arrival, and while it made for a few wet situations (like when my dad and I walked to the base of Latourell Falls and got caught in a downpour) it made for a lot of water flowing through each of the falls.  As I’ve mentioned before, waterfalls kind of amaze me; they’re made of a seemingly infinite amount of water flowing so furiously.  
    First up: Multnomah Falls.  Sure, you’ve seen it on film.  Well now, you’ll see it digitally and wide.

    2. Pretty! I like it. Had it been raining there or was it all the fog?

      PS: I like the digital more than film.

    4. Jeremy, these are beautiful. Have you ever seen it when it's frozen? So epic.

      @Matthew There is always a bit of "fog" around the falls because of how much water spray there is.
