On the hunt for waterfalls.  Oregon's Silver Falls SP is amazing with 10 
waterfalls, 4 of which you can walk behind.  Because of winter storm 
damage, the northern part of the trail was closed for repairs, but what 
was left was just fine with me.

We chose to enter the loop trail at Winter Falls as it was near the 
closed part of the trail.  I think this was the best flow I have seen 
there.  Will have to wait until I get home to make any comparisons.

Double Falls was also the best I remember.

Middle North Falls is my favorite as it is intimate being a smaller 
falls with less room behind it.  You can almost reach out and touch the 
falls.

Just the opposite of South Falls which is really big.

Lower South Falls is also fairly small and intimate.  185 stairs to get 
there if I remember correctly.  Than back up.

On to MacArthur Burney Falls SP in California.  Always consistent as it 
is spring fed, and always beautiful.  So many sub-falls to pick on.
