Koosah Waterfall on the McKenzie River:

Hiking on the Waterfalls Loop Trail on the wild and scenic McKenzie River in the Cascade Mountains of Oregon.

This view of Koosah Waterfalls can only be
had on the McKenzie Waterfalls Loop Trail, a mere 3.3 miles of scenic beauty, following the course of the Mc-
Kenzie River beginning at Carmen Reservoir down-
stream from Koosah Waterfall upstream along the river to Sahalie Waterfall and then the bridge. I prefer crossing at Carmen Reservoir and walking upstream on the other side of the river, you may prefer doing
just the opposite. No matter, it's all beautiful.

Back ~ Hiking upstream on the Waterfalls
Loop Trail.
