Upper Proxy Falls by Paul Garrett

I have visited Lower Proxy Falls on several occasions, but this past weekend I visited Upper Proxy Falls in the heart of the Cascade Mountain Range in Oregon for the first time. This amazing waterfall drops around a 100 feet down a steep mossy cliff and it offers endless opportunities for unique compositions. Proxy Falls is located just short hike from Route 242, and it is a little over an hour drive east of Eugene, Oregon. You will need a Forest Service Pass to park at the trailhead. These passes can be purchased at the Blue Sky Market in the little town of Rainbow, which is just west of the turnoff to Route 242 when you are driving up the McKenzie Highway from the Willamette Valley.
