FULL HIKE ALTERNATE ROUTE to Dry Creek Falls! | 4K Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area Oregon
This was a Day-Hike, Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area in Oregon, hiking to Dry Creek Falls. The main approach is typically via the Pacific Crest Trail, approximately 4.4 miles, 900 FT Elevation Gain. However, really due more to an accident/mistake of typing the location into Google Maps too quickly as I was trying to jam in 5 - 6 separate hikes in a row, I drove to Dry Creek Road, and accessed the area slightly to the North of the typical Pacific Crest Trailhead by hiking up a Forest Road Fire Line. This cut the hike from 4.4 miles to 3 miles, and cut a couple hundred feet of Elevation Gain. I also liked that this Forest Road more closely paralleled Dry Creek and I was the only one on that side on a busy day. The down side was that the Forest Road was a bit sketchy and bumpy, not all cars would make it, most likely would if driving very slowly and cautiously and prudently, but attempt to do so only at your own risk!
One of the things I like about Dry Creek Falls area is that it has that Wilderness Adventuring feel of a muddy/dirt trail in the Rainforest, whereas several of the other popular Hikes in the area are more paved cement/asphalt the entire way with that touristy feel. so this one had more of a natural wild rustic feel which I personally enjoy and appreciate.
This was hiked on 5/20/22, the weather was inconsistent, some sun breaks, blue sky, clouds and overcast, with a low in the high 30's and a high in the 50's, and there were NO mosquitoes.
