Oregon Trip Report 2018 – Part 3

Hug Point Falls

Continuing on from Part 1 and Part 2, Day Three started with a trip up the coast to see Haystack Rock:

The original plan was to continue up the coast, but due to the cloud cover, we decided that it was perfect waterfall weather, so we headed to Portland to the Columbia River Gorge. Upon arriving we found clear skies and sun. Go figure. Stops included Lower Latourell Falls:

And because the weather had cleared, the last stop of the trip was Mt. Hood for sunset:

Watching the alpenglow fade on Mt. Hood was a great way to end the trip.  Thanks for following along.

Upper Latourell Falls

Another from the Columbia River Gorge.  This time we’re at Upper Latourell Falls.  As with the lower falls, the trail was somewhat crowded, but I lucked out and had a few seconds to get a clean shot.

Lower Latourell Falls

Lower Latourell Falls, from Guy W. Talbot State Park which is located in the Columbia River Gorge.  This one required some patience because it was one of the few waterfall trails that was open again following the Eagle Creek Fire.  As a result there were many people milling around at the base of the falls.

Through The Lens 132 – Rainbow Falls

One from the archives.  Rainbow Falls at Watkins Glen taken back in the summer of 2006.  This was my first experience with a digital camera.

Happy Friday!

Through The Lens 127 – Cunningham Falls

One of the upper cascades at Cunningham Falls.  This one requires a bit of a climb to get to, but is worth the effort.
