More Multnomah Falls

In an earlier post we mentioned our hike to Multnomah Falls earlier this month and I wanted to share more images from that day.   We enjoyed a beautiful 2.2-mile hike as a family to the top of the 542-foot two-tiered waterfall with amazing views of the Columbia River Gorge.  



 After some initial 'adjustment' to the walking we had a chipper crew.

 Silly kids.



 Jonah... not afraid of heights.

 Pearce... in his element... enjoying God's beautiful creation.



At the end of the hike: Micah gives the day's events a thumb's up!

The kids did great with the 2.2 miles and we are looking forward to more hikes as a family, as there are so many options for great outings in the Portland area.

 MORE VIEWS of the Gorge...[kids didn't want to get out of the car at this viewpoint]

Where did you get that hiking trail map? It's great! We've been to Wahkeena and Mulnomah, but I didn't realize there was an upper trail that connected the two. TOTALLY going to do that next time we're north! Thanks!
