Travel Guide

Footbridges criss-cross Silver Creek all through the canyon.
Footbridges criss-cross Silver Creek all through the canyon.
Only a lunatic would wander every mile of the trail at Silver Falls State Park and stop at each of its ten majestic cascades and clip a few hundred photos of each, adding a couple of extra hours to what would normally be a four-hour trip.

Well, fortunately, my friends, I am such a lunatic.  Er... Well, for good or bad, I have some photos of each of the ten waterfalls at Silver Falls Park.

This is Lower South Falls.  At 93 ft (28m) in height, it clocks in at just over half the size of the tallest falls in the park.  But it's a beaut.

As you can see from this photo, the trail to the falls actually leads behind them and out the other side.  This is true of many of the waterfalls in the park.
The stairs that snake down to the Lower South Falls, part of the 11-mile Canyon Trail complex that runs through the park.
Silver Creek is the fuel, motor and the engine for all the waterfalls in the park.  There are very few spots where the water lies still.  The rest of the time you'll see it churning as it prepares to barrel over a waterfall or makes its way away from one waterfall and onto the next.

Everything was great. It would be a little nicer if you could enter the master bathroom from the master bedroom.

The host was really responsive and had great directions and instructions for my stay. It was cozy and well situated, quiet neighborhood but close enough to lots of things.

People are friendly and relaxed there. It's a small rural community but close enough to Salem for major shopping.
