The Cape Horn Waterfall Overlook provides hikers with a spectacular, and now safer, view of the Columbia River Gorge. Members of the Cape Horn Conservancy and Friends of the Columbia Gorge worked with volunteers to haul 10 tons of rock down a quarter mile path. Mason Michael Byrne rounded and carved all of the rocks into place.

Hikers are in for a treat once they approach the Cape Horn Waterfall Overlook.

Falcons, hawks, eagles, ospreys and seals have already been spotted from this spectacular, and now safer, panoramic viewpoint along the 7.7-mile trail in the Washougal-to-Stevenson corridor of the Columbia River Gorge.
