Photo Trip to Silver Falls State Park

Up early, out the door for the two hour drive to Silver Falls State Park. We planned a 7:30 arrival only to learn the park didn't open until 8:00. This gave us some extra time to explore the camping area and the North entrance to the park. We chose to start our hike at the South Falls, grabbing up the camera gear, we headed out.

I've been to the park several times in different seasons, but never in winter when the trees are bare.  



We had a little fog and mist rising from the falls.... Magical!


The feel is definitely winter, stark and bare, with an abundance of water, creating some dynamic images of South Falls. 



Last shot of South Falls as we head down the trail to the Lower South Falls.


And down, down, down we went ...... You know what that means, we'll have to hike back up, up, up  and out!



Beautiful Lower South Falls where the trail leads you behind the falls and out the other side.  


Last look, before heading the mile back up to the main parking lot. We then headed out to capture the North Falls and Winter Falls.

We had to wait for a place to park, as there were so many visitors and a small parking lot. We headed  back down the trail to capture Winter Falls..... last image of the day. 
  

A beautiful sunny day to visit Silver Falls State Park and capture a few Images.

Until next time....
