Curly Creek Falls
Curly Creek Falls is supposed to be the famed waterfall that had the rare distinction of having natural bridges spanning its falling watercourse. Unfortunately when we were there in…
Watson Falls

Lower Oneonta Falls
Lower Oneonta Falls is one of those waterfalls where you have to go on a bit of an adventure to see. Now why go through all the trouble if the Columbia River Gorge is chock full of waterfalls?
Salt Creek Falls
Salt Creek Falls was definitely one of the more impressive waterfalls we’ve seen in Oregon. We could tell that it was very popular because it was so easily accessible in addition to its impressive…
Vidae Falls
