Salt Creek Falls
Read on wiki that this is the third highest water fall in Oregon and it was only 50 mile detour so we took it. Access to waterfall was closed due to snow but then did not want to go back without seeing it. Hiked to it. No one was around and no path was visible which made it scary (Anmol and Aditi stayed in Car). Kept walking towards the sound of water and reached a 4-6' high fence. Fence was visible only 5-6". on the land side (other side was the waterfall). Crawled near the fence to see the 200' fall. It was scary, clicked a few photos and crawled back. Turned around. Noticed my shoe snow chains had fallen off. No way was I going to do 1 mile hike without them in deep snow. Heard cars from other side so crawled in that direction (along the fence). Loved snow which made the way to the road. Reached highway edge (was standing on 8' high snow) and jumped on the road. Did another 3 miles hike (since none gave me lift) and reached back safe.
