From a visit to the Sweet Creek trail of waterfalls a couple of weeks back. Like most of the falls along this trail these falls have no name and are just one of an almost continuous set of rapids and basalt shelf falls. I visit this trail often but it never quite looks the same each time I visit so I always find new ways to shoot the place each time I go.

This little cascade is on Wahkeena Creek in the Columbia River Gorge.

Nice Michael - the lower rapids at Wahkeena have always been one of my favorite targets up in the Gorge.

Sadly that set of waterfalls has been completely overrun during the last year and is almost impossible to visit anymore. I tried dropping by a couple of weeks ago on a weekday only to find that people were filling up all of the parking spots that could be found within a mile of the Wahkeena parking area. It was hard to drive up to the actual parking area due to the number of people walking on the roadway from where they finally parked their cars. It was a mob scene that rivaled what we usually see on weekends at Multnomah.
