On a cold February day Brenna and I decided we wanted to see a waterfall. Tamanawas Falls was our destination. I stopped by Treefort Lifstyles shop and picked up some gear to get some shots for them. They are a small company out of Welches Oregon run by a guy named Jeff. I grabbed a hat and ear flaps for the trip.
The drive over the pass was very cold at about 25 degrees plus wind. It rose to about 39 at the trail head for the falls.
At the falls the spray from the impact of the water was chilling.
Because of the cliffs on either side of the falls creating a dome shape it gets a lot of wind.
The ice at the bottom of the falls was a few feet deep at some spots.
The hike in and out was only 3.6 miles. And it was nice and cool hiking alongside the river for most of the way.
This is one of the largest waterfalls I have been to and the second largest in that part of Oregon. There are not many in the dryer part of the state. Another great sight is White River Falls. I saw that for the first time last summer.
I got some good shots for Treefort Lifstyles, that being part of my goal for the trip I was glad it worked out.
This was my second time ever seeing this falls, and I hope I will have that privilege again in the future.
It's a beautiful place
