Faraway Friday Land of a thousand waterfalls
Milford Sound in New Zealand becomes the land of a thousand waterfalls when it rains. Waterfalls were everywhere. Unfortunately, it was raining so hard and was so foggy, that we could only see the bottom 100 feet of what is usually 1000ft soaring mountains and valleys.
If you continue past the main Tumalo falls there are several smaller but beautiful falls.
There is an interesting phenomenon in eastern Oregon regarding waterfalls. In the Olympic peninsula waterfalls are all practically dried up and barely flowing this time of year. Here in this VERY VOLCANIC area the water flows from underneath in lava tubes and lava rock and is just as powerful in September. Sure makes photographing them easier!

Tumalo Falls
This is an easy to reach, beautiful waterfall just 1/4 mi walk from the parking lot. It has well maintained trails and great look outs for various views.

Snoqualmie Falls
These beautiful falls are about 2hr 15 min from Sequim in the cascades. The original “lodge” was built in 1916 and had 8 rooms. Now it is a luxury boutique hotel–well worth the high price tag.
Roadside Attractions
Along the 112 that goes around Lake Crescent small waterfalls pop up everywhere during the spring melt off.
