Multnomah Falls

WHY I LOVE THIS WATERFALL:

1. It's the tallest waterfall in the state of Oregon (611 ft. tall!)
2. It's the hub of many of the Columbia Gorge's best hikes/waterfalls. 
3. According to Native American folklore - it was created for a Princess who needed a private place to bathe. 
4. The candied nut and fudge stand located outside give off the most AMAZING, mouth watering cinnamon bursting smell. 
5. You can grab a quick chai latte at the start or end of your hike whilst gazing at the amazing falls in front of you. 
6. Those damn switchbacks are killer!

IT'S DOWNFALLS:

1. It's crowded as F%$@!
2. Those damn switchbacks are killer!
