|| Photo from @realshots_pdx || University Falls is located within an area devastated by one of the worst forest fires in Oregon's history. In 1933, 1945 and 1951, wildfires burnt a total of 350,000 acres and more than 13.5 billion board feet of wood. Land which was previously under consideration for wilderness designation was hence maligned. Wildlife was decimated and tourism was viewed as irrelevant and futile, so the push for wilderness designation ended. However, in 1948, Oregon Voters passed a 12 million dollar measure to rehabilitate the forest by clearing dead snags and planting over 70 million trees. || Image selected by @ericmuhr || Join us in exploring Oregon, wherever you are, and tag your finds to #Oregonexplored ||
|| OE Weekly || Photo by @squatch503 || University Falls is an exciting 54 ft. high falls on Elliot Creek in Tillamook State Forest. It is much more exciting (and wide) if seen when it is flowing well in the winter/early spring (waterfallsnorthwest.com). || #universityfalls #tillamookstateforest #oregoncoastrange #Oregon || This week we're featuring Chris.
