Waespe Point 03/16/2011



Rex led this hike up Multnomah Falls, past Wiesendanger Falls, past Ecola Falls then up the trail towards Larch Mountain. We went up the trail Nesika Lodge, the trail is full Christmas Ornaments. Dianna said it started as a toothbrush that somebody lost and someone else hung it up, then it evolved into ornaments.



It snowed a little when were at the Lodge. The Oregon Trails Club owns the Lodge which was built in 1923. There are some dormitories and the Lodge was rebuilt a few years ago. Waespe Point was named for Henry Waespe.



The view was very cloudy with fog over the whole gorge, but on I hope to come back on a clear day.
