We just spent a week in Oregon, primarily to hike/photograph in the Columbia River Gorge as well as on the northern/central coast. In-between we made a stopover in Salem, and visited Silver Falls State Park. We were supposed to have an afternoon and morning there, but the morning got rained out so we just got to spend 1/2 day there. It was a great hike though; between the iffy weather and it being a weekday in the off-season, we pretty much had the place to ourselves. While the weather conditions were unpleasant at times, they were actually great for photography in this type of environment. To view the images, click here or on the image above.
