#WaterfallWednesday I almost forgot!

I think this #cascade masquerading as a #waterfall is in Oregon somewhere. Maybe on the #alseaRiver or the #SantiamRiver but it could be somewhere else in #Oregon or elsewhere in the #pnw. I took the photo in October of 2009 hence my poor memory for exactly where this is. The (I think?) vine maple turning colors on the far left indicates this is at an elevation where it's just starting to become fall.

Any #geolocation or waterfall experts recognize this?
