Multnomah Falls

The drive East from Portland is Columbia River Gorge-ous (pardon the pun!). The Oregon Scenic Route is 80 miles long and follows the river the whole way. The Columbia River is the fourth largest in North America, is over 1200 miles long, and produces the most hydroelectric power. One of the highlights of the drive along the Gorge is Multnomah Falls with its 620 foot drop. The stone bridge was crafted by Italian stone masons in 1914. Now with Multnomah Falls, we've seen the tallest (Yosemite Falls) and the second tallest waterfalls in the U.S.
