Travel: Northwest and Central Oregon By Robert Ellis Robert Ellis Woodworking For our trip to Oregon this fall, we made plans to see the Columbia River Gorge, John Day Fossil Beds National Monument (John Day is comprised of three separate units). We saw the Sheep Rock and Painted Hills units. From there we traveled to Smith Rock State Park (reminded me a lot of a small version of Zion National Park in Utah). Since we were staying in Redmond, Oregon, and Crater Lake National Park is only about 120 miles away, we decided to visit this National Park...again. We had visited it before on a previous trip but couldn't see it for the dense fog over the entire lake. This year brought crystal blue skies. The last full day of the trip was Silver Falls State Park, which has several waterfalls as well, along with moss-covered, old-growth forests. Our first stop was an overlook point near the beginning of the highway that runs along the Columbia River. I believe we saw nine on this day, including Silver Falls State Park. The total waterfalls visited this trip was around fourteen! Note: We'll be posting photos from Robert's trip as he shares them, but you can bookmark this article to find them all as they're added.
