OMG, I just HAD to comment on this one. When I saw the title, I was like "no way...could this be the same place?"
26 years ago I was at Christine Falls with my 6-week old daughter Christine and had a pic of us taken with this in the background. I was living in Olympia at the time. Thanks for bringing the memories back.
FABULOUS image! #5281936
