Columbia River Gorge, Oregon
I'm lucky enough to live in an area that provides such easy access to some of the most beautiful scenery around! This picture was taken during the summer of 2008 when a few friends and I went hiking in the Columbia River Gorge in Oregon. This area offers some of the most spectacular views, waterfalls and foliage around. When I just need a break or some time to enjoy, the outdoors this is one of the best spots around!
