This is one of the most amazing waterfalls in Oregon. The size is unbelievable – especially when you’re standing right underneath it, which I would recommend anyone to do (just be prepared for a misty shower)
The hike is Easy! It’s only about 2 miles round trip. I remember going here when I was a little kid and I could hike it easily even back then. You have to be careful when you’re close to ...

This trail is unmarked and a little rough and rugged. The land is privately owned by Mount Angel Abbey, but they don't appear to have problems with courteous hikers.

Look about a little further down the road (~100 feet) and find the second trail – ...

The hike takes you along a glacial lake and to unbeatable mountain views at the end. It’s a hidden gem! The trail isn’t marked and the best way to get there is know someone that’s been before.

From the viewpoint you can see the peak of Brok...

It’s so peaceful to be out snowshoeing through the Cascade Mountains. There are views of Mt. Bachelor, the South Sister and Broken Top on a clear day. Also, feeding the birds at the end is really fun!The trail is a little over 6 miles round trip (it's a loop if you go around the lake at the end) and is pretty beginner in terms of snowshoeing since there’s not a huge elevation gain.In the winter...
