I think anyone who comes to the Columbia Gorge will see these falls at some point. You can get a pretty good glimpse of them from one of the major highways out here. It's the tallest waterfall in OR and is said to be the third tallest year round waterfall in the US. There are all sorts of paths and trails all around it, most are highly accessible to the general public. We had a great time exploring the icy surroundings and taking in the massive beauty of these falls. The hike to the bridge was relatively mild and very rewarding as the view of the falls and the gorge was stunning. The falls were partially frozen and glittering, and the ice forming in the crystal clear mountain stream was glacier blue. If you come out to visit us, we will be taking you here.

While we were in the gift shop at the falls we unexpectedly found a pair of silver and opal rings that were exactly what we were looking for to serve as our "promise" rings... basically to symbolize our 3+ years together and our interest in legally formalizing the relationship at some point...
(it's legal for us to get married in WA) They aren't our proper engagement/wedding rings but more like a pre-engagement ring.. lol.
