Columbia River
Oneonta Gorge

The next attraction you'll reach isn't a waterfall, it's a narrow gorge. To experience it, you'll have to climb over a huge log jam at the mouth of the gorge, which can be treacherous.

Once you've made it to the other side of the log jam, you can continue easily up the gorge, for as far as you'd like. Expect to get your feet wet though, since there's very little dry ground.

Here's a closer look at the log jam you must climb over, to enter the gorge. It's especially dangerous once your feet are wet, since the moisture makes the weathered logs slippery. If you fall, you'll find yourself wedged between the logs, so if you're not up to the challenge, don't tackle it.

	I re-visited this area in 2006, on my Northern Rockies trip.  Check out Crown Point, Multnomah Falls, and Sheppard's Dell.
