Multnomah Falls

Last Thursday Jon and I went up to Multnomah Falls and this is what we saw...




Wind from the falling water makes slanted and curved icicles at the base of the falls.


A creek near the falls has frozen completely.



Here's a video I took trying to capture the whole falls. Notice the build up of ice on the metal railing. That's how much ice was covering every surface of the viewing area (and the steep trail leading to it). We had to pull ourselves up the trail using the hand rail and on the way down we slid--Jon on his feet and me on my seat!
