Description
Mist Falls is an intriguing waterfall. It's the second highest waterfall in Oregon, after nearby Multnomah Falls. Unfortunately, Mist Falls suffers in the recognition department for its small flow, particularly in the summertime. On dry, windy summer days, it's not uncommon for the entire waterfall to disappear, becoming only a cloud of mist.
From Benson Park, the entire waterfall is visible. but from the base of the falls, hikers will only be able to see the lower tier. From the right viewpoint, the water seems to miraculously fall directly from the peak of the mountain, with no visible upper source other than clear blue sky.
