Columbia Gorge 6 Waterfalls Sampler
We will work our way through the Columbia Gorge from east to west to hike six waterfalls, including Wahclella, Elowah, Upper McCord Creek, Horsetail, Ponytail, and Triple Falls. Several of the falls are reached from the same trail. The falls should be full and wildflowers plentiful from spring rains. We will conclude the afternoon with refreshments at Multnomah Falls, if it is not busy, or somewhere else on the way home. Bring rain gear for the falls' spray, if not for the rain. Trails may be muddy and slick. Vaccination and booster required. The 2017 fire affected some of these trails. All of these falls' trails are open as of March 2022, but I have not scouted them this spring.
