Despite its rather unimaginative name, South Falls was probably the one waterfall in Silver Falls State Park that seemed to us to have the most notoriety amongst the park’s ten main waterfalls…

North Falls is perhaps the second most popular waterfall in Silver Falls State Park primarily because of how relatively easy it is to access. This one exhibited a more or less…

Elowah Falls was another one of the distinct plunging waterfalls situated in John B. Yeon State Park more towards the eastern end of what we perceived to be the “waterfalls area” along the…

Wahclella Falls (also known as Tanner Creek Falls) is one of the relatively lesser known waterfalls in the Columbia River Gorge. To get to it, you have to do a roughly 2-mile…

Metlako Falls is the first main waterfall on Eagle Creek. Due to the steepness of the gorge, your view of the falls is rather distant from a lookout that hugs the nearly…

Punch Bowl Falls (sometimes spelled Punchbowl Falls) was perhaps the main attraction of the Eagle Creek Gorge. For such a modestly-sized waterfall at 30-35ft, it was a very popular waterfall…

Starvation Creek Falls probably doesn’t quite get the publicity that other essentially roadside attractions get in the Columbia River Gorge area. Perhaps it’s because most visitors…

Grand Falls, when it’s on like it was when we were there, is one of the most attractive waterfalls in the US (let alone the American Southwest). What makes this proclaimed 181ft waterfall so…
