To understand how Oregon manages highly used recreation areas, Fellows visited the most popular site in Oregon: Multnomah Falls. The falls are the tallest in Oregon at 620 feet and they receive over 2 million visitors each year. There were a few surprises here for Fellows, including the lack of an entrance fee and how little time visitors seemed to spend at the falls (about 15 minutes). Fellows also visited the Columbia Gorge Discovery Center.
