Day 40 - Corbett to Corvallis

Here is the waterfall that we had walked to on Saturday morning. I believe that it is called Upper Horsetail Falls and also referred to as Ponytail Falls. It was only a ½ mile or so from the parking lot but was far enough for some in the group as the trail was steep and rocky. To give some idea of the size of the cave, you can see several people inside of the cave.

Today, Sunday, was the last day of the reunion and as is our tradition, we met at McMenamins-Edgefield for lunch. Bridget and I shared the hummus plate and this small pizza with artichoke hearts, spinich and hazelnuts. Pretty tasty! Afterwards, we looked for a couple of geocaches before gearing up to try and beat the rain. We only had a few sprinkles on the way to Corvallis and though it did rain shortly after we arrived back at my mom's home.

Tomorrow, we (note the "we") head for the Oregon coast.

    1. The hikes are a nice diversion but no way justifies all of the good food...

  4. The pizza looks tasty. Funny that you got rain yesterday, we didn't see any at our place. Must have just been north town.

    1. It rained on us a bit north of Albany then it rained pretty hard after reaching my Mom's house.

      The pizza was good. I don't think I've ever had one with nuts on it before.
