Latourelle and Coopey Falls

[yourlibrarian]

We drove down the historic 30, a 2 lane road that wound around the hills and which crossed paths with numerous waterfalls. Our first stop was Latourelle, which was just off the road.





If you look at the bottom left of the photo below you can see some people walking by which gives you an idea of the scale of the falls.



Another shot of Latourelle Falls, in which I also wanted to include the mossy trees around it.

So beautiful! I love the Pacific Northwest.

[yourlibrarian]

Yes, the abundance of waterfalls in Oregon alone...

Wonderful!

[yourlibrarian]

Such a spectacular sight.

Oh, wow, this is really cool! I would NOT have guessed at the scale of it until you pointed to the tiny people haha. It must be an incredible sight.

[yourlibrarian]

I think it's because trees vary so much in size that they are not good markers of scale? Many of the trees near the falls are themselves enormous so it doesn't compute.

Wow that's gorgeous! Amazing pictures ♥

[yourlibrarian]

Your icon looks like a great place too!

*g* It's a stock icon, not made by me, so I don't know where it is, but I do like it because it looks like such a peaceful place.

I find little more striking than waterfalls against dark rocks 🙂

[puddleshark]

Oh, wow! Fabulous landscape, and wonderful photos.

Thank you!

[yourlibrarian]

We were really glad we got to see it.

[turlough]

Ooh, these photos are stunning! I'm terribly envious you got to see such beautiful sights.

[yourlibrarian]

We were glad we managed to get to so many places during the trip, it really was a bit of everything except desert and swamp!

[scintilla10]

Oh gosh, so pretty!

We saw a few Pacific Northwest waterfalls recently and they were particularly roaring and abundant with water melting from the glaciers - quite spectacular!

[yourlibrarian]

It's a great sight (and sound!). Nice icon btw!

[linky]

What an absolutely gorgeous photo!

[yourlibrarian]

Glad you liked them!

[yourlibrarian]

Not on that part of the trip but saw some cheetahs later!

[citrakayah]

Nice. Where'd you see them?
