Columbia Gorge Waterfall

We went on a hike that turned into an exploration, which is my term for hikes that go off course and do not achieve the expected goal. The goal was Wauna Point, but the road to the trailhead was closed so we had to walk the road, which was blocked by the results of a windstorm, amazing in itself. The best thing is that only four other people were seen on this journey, which is lonely for a Sunday, thirty miles from town.

Basalt blocks
tumble water
lively beauty.
