NOTES
Thousands of visitors along the Historic Columbia River Highway visit this beautiful spot, with its roaring waterfall cascading down steep cliffs into Youngs Creek and out to the Columbia River far below. One of the most beautiful and historic highway bridges crosses the canyon here, but you can’t see or appreciated it unless you leave your car and take the short trail to the falls.
FEES
There is no fee to use this park.
