After I walked along the rapids for a couple of miles, I came around a bend to find this...
|
... a gorge of sorts at the bottom of the falls.
|
Look at the water swirling on the rocks on the right bank.
|
|
There's some serious power here.
|
There were no venues that showed the falls themselves...
|
... but I loved the roar and the rush.

This word "slough" was used alot in Oregon :-)
|
I appreciated this map, and the outhouse nearby :-)
|
The trail along the river was pretty flat and even, so I could walk fast. Notice the piled dark rocks on the far side? Volcanic, I assume.

Wonder what got this guy. Lightning? Bugs? Old age?
|
There were lots of these trees with the fan shaped branches.
|
Root balls are always fun to come across.
