Geographical Thursday |
Thursday's had just become "Special
Places" day. I began sending pictures of
special places I've been and special things I've seen. Later these became known
as "Geographicals".
This one, here is a picture of the South Falls at
the Silver Falls State park
in Oregon. This park is located approximately 26 miles east of
Salem, Or.
and has about seven water falls spanning the same river over a
distance of
about seven miles all together. This park is about a 30 minute
drive from my
sister's house and the town where I lived for many years growing
up. There
is a nice trail that extends the length of the park and all the
falls. This
fall, as well as others along the trail, has a nice trail that
goes under
and behind the water fall. The fall is approximately 177 feet
high.
This has always been one of my favorite places
and I try to go there
every time I visit Oregon.
