These amazing, red, Blomidon cliffs can be seen from across the water! Enjoy walking along the red sand keeping your eyes open for amethyst, agates or other collectible rocks! This is an excellent spot for taking unique photos with the towering cliffs and small waterfalls.  Across the road, as you begin walking up the hill to the campground, listen for the sounds of a waterfall. Make your way through the trees to the towering falls cascading over columnar basalt rocks.
