Salt Creek Falls

02/08/16

Salt Creek Falls is one of my personal favorites as far as waterfalls in Oregon go; the waterfall is nearly 300 ft tall, and is one of the more powerful streams that I have been to (so far). The hike is relatively easy, but the very last section of the trail (below the second vantage point) took some damage from a rock slide a while back, so getting to the valley floor is a bit of a steep decent, but definitely worth checking out if you go when there's not a ton of snow. I have gone mid-May and caught perfect sunny conditions, with almost nobody else out there, and just recently went again at the end of January with tons of beautiful powdery snow. Salt Creek Falls is definitely worth checking out if you enjoy seeing Oregon's waterfalls! I suggest going in winter (dress for tons of powdery snow and take a vehicle that can handle snowy conditions), or late spring
