Silver Falls State Park - South Falls

P1140319cMarkus' first waterfall.

In the morning, we all went to One Green World to pick up more strawberry and huckleberry plants for the front yard.

Afterwards we stopped at the nearby Wooden Shoe Tulip Farm, but since it's been such a cool winter none of the tulips are up yet.

Since we were halfway there and it had mostly stopped raining, we decided to head to Silver Falls State Park.




P1140335The sound of the waterfall puts Markus to sleep.

He often sleeps in the Bjorn, but the "white noise" of the waterfall put him to sleep almost immediately.

Although there are 10 (or more) falls at the park, this is one of my favorites because the trail goes all the way back behind the waterfall.

Because it was chilly and getting late we decided not to hike to any of the other falls. We did see North Falls from a roadside viewpoint.

It is good that his first one is an elegant one. Improves his taste in waterfalls.
