Tamolitch Dry Falls

May 24, 2005

We had a perfectly beautiful, sunny day for this short but spectacular hike from Trailbridge Reservoir along the McKenzie River through impressive old-growth and across the 1600 years old lava flow. Tamolitch pool is as stunning as ever with its crystal clear, blue-green water. We shared a lunch site overlooking the pool with a group of hikers who came down from the upper falls, two mountain bikers (ouch) and an eager New Yorker who was determined to visit every scenic spot in Oregon. On the hike out we had an interesting chat with a group of biologists conducting a plant inventory of the McKenzie watershed. Hikers were non-member John Bailey and members Leona Devine (leader), Margaret Prentice and Barb Revere.
