A Sunday Drive: Waterfalls and Dippers

We took the opportunity today to head for the hills on a sunny Sunday afternoon. The hills, it turned out, were socked in with fog. However once we dropped down into lower elevations, along the Nestucca River, we were below the fog. 

Clarence Creek Falls must be the longest waterfall in the world if you count the stream that doesn't stop dropping after that first sheer plunge.




  The Nestucca River has resident American Dippers all along its' course. We saw two by a bridge where we always see them. Then we headed for Alder Glen Campground which has its own little waterfall... and nearly always a Dipper. It did not fail us today.



It was a nice break from wreath making for me and apple gathering and cider making for Johnny.
