This is the last waterfall I photographed during my day trip up the Old Columbia River Highway about a month ago. Horsetail Falls, at 192 ft., is one of the easiest to access waterfalls on the loop, as you can get to it right off the highway. There is a trail you can follow up to 2 other falls behind it. There is also the pool at the bottom which is good for wading, but it is cold!!!
I have posted a waterfall a week for the past few weeks, which can be seen here:
Latourell Falls
Wakeena Falls
Bridal Veil Falls
Thank you for following the tour! If you are in the Portland Metro Area, I highly suggest checking out these falls, as well as the other beautiful sights the Columbia River Gorge has to offer. Here is a map of the Old Columbia River Highway, which shows the route I took that day!

As a child, my family would take drives up the Gorge from our farm in Hillsboro. Horsetail Falls was always my favorite...just because of it's name...I was such a horse nut...well, guess I still am.
A beautiful shot...it looks just the same as 40 years ago.
The waterfall DOES look like a horse tail! But I love any waterfall, also to paint them!
Beautiful shot, my parents used to take me to that area when I was a kid....your pictures remind me that I really need to get back there!
