Travel brochures say the best time to visit Sahalie Falls is during the snowmelt of Spring. We were there in August, and I can't imagine the falls being more spectacular - or more lovely.
This thundering falls plunges more than 100 feet over a lava cliff to form a glorious display. On the day of our visit there was even a rainbow in the mist. The waterfall is reached by an easy paved path from a parking area to a an overlook with guardrails. We took the dirt trail downstream below the main waterfall and discovered another very interesting cascade of 30 to 40 feet which was impressive in its own right.
Sahalie is a Chinook Indian word meaning "high," and we found visiting the falls to be a high experience in more ways than one.
