Consolation Creek
A a nameless creek, tumbling down into Eagle Creek along Columbia River Gorge. I gave it this moniker after being the only product of a rather disappointing morning’s photography at Punchbowl Falls — from which I came away empty handed.
Tucked up off the trail, which in itself is a stunning way to spend a days hiking, it’s a beauty of a creek tumbling between mossy boulders and the thick undergrowth of the Columbia River Gorge, rampant with green after the morning's rains.
