Where the Waterfalls Are
Myrtle Point sits in or near the Coast Range area of Oregon. The Coast Range receives some of the heaviest rainfall in the continental United States, and its streams fall off basalt and sandstone ledges through dense forests of Douglas fir, Sitka spruce and western hemlock. Drift Creek Falls in Lincoln County is viewed from a suspension bridge over a canyon, and Youngs River Falls in Clatsop County spills into a pool in a forested setting near Astoria. Tillamook State Forest holds falls such as Fern Rock Falls, and Coos County has its own cluster in the southern Coast Range. Coastal falls run strongest in winter and spring, when Pacific storms bring steady rain. Read the Oregon waterfall guide.
