Deception Falls

On Saturday morning, not having time for a full day hike, I visited a spot that I've passed by on numerous occasions while driving to and from other trailheads: Deception Falls along Highway 2. If you haven't visited, make a stop there next time you're traveling through the area! As short highway stops go, it's one of the more scenic ones - waterfalls and rapids to gaze at, a few old trees, and interpretive signage, all along a short and easy loop trail (less than a mile).

First, the falls itself. F/18, exposure time 3 seconds.

Next, the view downstream over Deception Creek from the footbridge. F/18, exposure time 2 seconds.
