Elowah Falls - Paradise on Earth

It was a gloomy day in Portland (not a surprise for Portlanders, I suppose). I made my way through slippery trail and wet rocks, jumping over little streams that were flowing across the trail with abundant rain. Thanks to inclement conditions there were no other hikers on this trail. I had no idea what was in store around the corner, when I heard the sound of the falls.

 

It was heaven on earth - Elowah falls. It took my breath away. I felt like a child, happiness took over me. For a moment my mind went blank and I stood there astounded by the beauty of the falls, the foot bridge and the stream.

 

I would definitely recommend this falls to everyone who visits the Gorge. I just couldnt leave that place but forced myself to leave as it was getting dark and late.
