Story

After Horsetail Falls, we proceeded to Multnomah Falls. Parking was a nightmare and we ended up driving around a bunch trying to find a spot. We ended up taking my dad's parking spot so he could go pick up the rest of the group at the other trail. We viewed the falls from the lookout at the bottom then proceeded up to the bridge to get a view from there. We also stopped at the visitor center and got some magnets.
