Multnomah Falls

We visited Multnomah Falls briefly while on a recent trip to the Columbia River gorge. The falls are on the Oregon side of the gorge east of Portland and are listed as the second tallest falls in the United States at 620 feet (189 m). They are along Old Highway 30 and are a popular tourist destination. The bridge over the falls was built in 1914 and is named after the man who financed it, George Benson.
