The Shepperd's Dell State Natural Area is home to the small canyon known as Shepperd’s Dell, located within Oregon’s Columbia River Gorge. Back in 1915, George Shepperd, a dairy farm in the area, gave all of his land to Portland, Oregon as a memorial for his wife. Thousands of people today travel the Historic Columbia River Highway to see this gorgeous spot and the roaring, cascading waterfall that flows down the cliffs to Youngs Creek below and on to the Columbia River. The historic highway runs across a bridge over Sehpperd’s Dell, but visitors can take a short trail nearby to the waterfall.
