Waterfalls

Oregon's abundant precipitation and rugged terrain produce a variety of waterfalls throughout the state. Some have been important in Oregon's economic development, such as the Willamette River falls at Oregon City, while others are simply magnificent sights. There are many waterfalls in state parks along the Columbia River Gorge.
