Name of Waterfall

Husum Falls

Description

Husum Falls are found adjacent to the bridge along Highway 141 where it crosses the White Salmon River in the town of Husum, itself about 9 miles north of Bingen. Parking is found on the north side of the bridge.Husum Falls drops 12 feet along the White Salmon River as it flows beneath Highway 141 in the small town of Husum. The falls are fairly unremarkable except that its common to see commercial rafting expeditions running the falls and the reactions of all the first-time rafters are usually pretty funny. I wouldn't suggest going out of your way to see this waterfall, but its worth a look when passing through.
