Eagle Creek


What an incredible hike! The Eagle Creek trail led us through 16 miles of continual beauty...in one of the most scenic areas in the Gorge. The sun came out early that morning illuminating the waterfalls, shear cliffs, wildflowers, and old growth that accompanied our adventure! This is Oregon's road to Hana in my opinion... well worth the 12 hours, sore knees, and tired thighs. I would definitely encourage you to go explore this trail if you haven't had the chance!

God bless,
Shannon and Donna

Join us on June 29th for our Dog Mountain Climb! Sign-up at the back table:)
