Tumalo Falls

Last Wednesday, Keith, Jayne and I tried to visit Tumalo Falls, one of the more popular waterfalls in the area, but it was so crowded that vehicles were lined up on both sides of the access road for several hundred yards before the trailhead. I did not want to risk certain death from all those masked people not social-distancing, so we skipped it and headed to the Dee Wright Observatory.

Today, I left my campsite early this morning and when I arrived at the Falls, there were only a few cars and two people in the parking lot. Unfortunately, the waterfall was still in the shadows so the photos were not as sharp as I would have liked...

I considered hiking to the top of the waterfall, but the mosquitoes were so bad I wimped out.
