With a name as forboding as Hell’s Canyon I’m glad to hear that it remains unspoilt!

Indeed, there is hope. Earlier this month, I was on a boat in one of the deepest river gorges in the country. That beautiful area known as Hell’s Canyon was spared the indignity of a dam that didn’t get built. We and our children might have never seen the rugged beauty of the Snake River.

Thanks. We will be in Seattle next year. I think. Planning another Alaska cruise.

I’ve been to Port Angeles several times from different routes. One was by ferry from Seattle to Port Townsend, them drive there. 😊

We were unaware of the falls. That’s on us. >frown<

I’m sure I have one taken at the same spot – near the parking area at the end of the road? Did you do the short walk to the waterfall there? We spent three days in and around the park but like you relied on the roads to explore it rather than hiking and still manged to see a lot 🙂

Thanks. It’s a beautiful place, for sure.
