Wow that was fun! After 15 miles and 13 water falls, we finished backpacking the Eagle Creek Trail at exit 41 on I-84 near Portland, Oregon.
I would rate this trail as easy, with a gental upward climb. The only difiiculty would be the fear of heights do to some of the segments of the trail being carved out, narrow and high above the creek below.
There are a number of more falls that are beyond the "7-1/2 Mile Camp", but we decided to quit early before too many of the camp sites were taken.
It's a busy trail but beautiful and well worth the hike, even if just for the day.
