Multnomah Falls

The Columbia River snakes along the border between southern Washington and northern Oregon all the way to the sea. We ended up following along this stretch for quite a ways on our adventures this summer to visit a number of spots before heading further south.

One of these places was Multnomah Falls which is a gorgeous spot with a rather steep hike to the top of the falls consisting of a dozen or so switchbacks.
The hike is pretty reasonable except I was perhaps overfussing about the potential cold at the top and as such we were both bundled up in too many layers so the climb was more arduous because of the heat than any lack of physical fitness.

The view from the top was equally impressive, offering a commanding view of the Columbia River and both states.

The top of the falls was also populous enough that we were able to get someone else to take a picture of the pair of us, helping to prove that two people did go on this trip since most of the pictures only have one or the other of us.
