Henline Falls and Opal Creek 15 May 2015

I did not feel like battling Portland traffic for another weekend, so opted for Opal Creek - even though there was a chance of rain.  Turns out it was cloudy, foggy, and drizzly 90% of the day - but that didn't spoil the beauty of the old growth forest and crystal clear pools. Combining both hikes:  9.3 mi and 500 ft gain.
