Along the scenic Columbia Gorge is a waterfall-filled canyon created by Bridal Veil Creek. It is a steep bushwhack down to the creek. This short journey down the canyon starts with a steep bushwhack from Palmer Mill Road to the creek. Downstream is the first rappel at Upper Bridal Veil Falls. Anchoring from a large tree on the left, this is a 100 foot rappel. Following this are multiple cascades to scramble down or you can use fallen logs. After a few scrambles, there is a 15 foot waterfall that can be rappelled or climbed down on the left if the water is low enough. Next, there is a 25 feet waterfall that drops into a narrow deep pool. Rappel this using the fallen log in the bottom part of the falls as the anchor. The canyon gets higher and steeper with the fourth and final waterfall has a 60 foot rappel into a deep pool. You can anchor it from a log on the right. The final leg is a hike to the Historic Columbia Rvier Hwy bridge where there is a close parking lot. Bring 30 feet of webbing and enough rope to rappel 100 feet.
