Latourelle Falls, just east of portland a bit. It was an easy hike, and fun to try out oren's new pack! There are actually two falls. One right near the road (below) and another about 2 miles into the forest...the trail went right up to its base...and was it ever intense! There was so much water pouring over, it really took your breath away.
beautiful historic bridge, all board-formed concrete. This is part of the historic gorge highway, built in the early 1900's.

this is just past the 2nd falls, far enough down the trail my hair wasn't blowing all over from the falls. Lucy literally pulled me over this bridge to get away from the noise/water/wind.
