Watson Falls


 
  Watson Falls, Oregon
Watson Falls, Oregon
Watson Falls is located in a waterfall rich section of the Umpqua National Forest. Watson Creek plunges 272 feet into an amphitheatre carved out of columnar rock and then tumbles down a long noisy cascade a couple of hundred more feet.

Watson Falls is located at milepost 60.5 on Hwy 138. Turn south on to Road 37. The parking lot is on the right. The top of the falls is visible from the parking lot. The trail to the falls crosses the road and then climbs up along the cascade. The trail is .4 miles long and ascends 200 feet or so. The trail crosses the creek near the top of the cascade, providing a nice view of the falls. The trail continues climbing and ends above the base of the falls.

This is a powerful waterfall and produces a lot of spray. You are likely going to get wet if you get close.

  Love your pov, Denny. You show us the high falls into the ampitheatre and include the bridge, all from the runoff foreground, presenting the perfect sense of place.

  Thank you ever so much Ellen, Marty and Ron! That is a 200'+ old lava flow the falls is flowing over. It must have been really something when this area was active.

  WOW...Denny! This is truly magnificent!! Brilliant POV, lighting, details, DOF and color. Amazing image!! Deb...P.S. Thanks so much for your wonderful comment on my Bandon image. You're right...Bandon in summer is tough with the fog. Sometimes Jan can be good (but not this year...lol), May and October. It really is a fabulous beach!
