Nice shots! I always like the waterfalls in Oregon, and the waterfall moss! Someday I will try some of our local moss species in a test aquarium (not from state parks!). I think our state is very rich in moss!
Some pics of some Oregon rivers.

Just came back from my vacation, went camping and all the fun stuff. Wanted to show off some pictures i took while hiking.
First set is Soda creek falls in Cascadia State park. These are all the same water fall, just different angles and elevations. The water fall is at the end of the season so not that big, at the start of summer its amazing!

The campground was a flat space, nice fire pit and a picnic table. They also have some bathrooms that my wife was very excited about! So nice basic campgrounds.
Ravenous I don't believe their is rules for rocks and wood, if i wanted something from a park i would check the boards at the front of the park. Calling or asking a park service person would be best. I have collected some rocks and wood from the Sandy, Zig Zag and Willamette rivers, but they where on my friends properties. I do know that fish and plants are different story.
Cah95 their are some great waterfalls in oregon and the rivers to! One day it would well be worth a vacation visit!!!!
Here are some pics of the Santiam river by where i started my second hike.
This bridge is a upside down covered bridge, I don't know why its upside down? Or even better why its still called a covered bridge if its not covered? But it is, and theirs is only one other like it in the USA.
And my dog being a weirdo

Beautiful pics, thanks for sharing them. They remind me of why I love Oregon. I've really got to get out and about again, I think Silver Falls state park might be calling me. 
What a cute dog. Looks like a high-energy, always on the go type of pooch.

cs_gardener my dog has more energy then a power plant, infact i think he could be that alternative energy source everyone is looking for. He had an absolute blast swimming and hiking. Thanks for looking at my pictures, i have been really trying to learn photography in my off time, and i am pretty happy with most of these pictures! Not that its hard to take a nice pictures in Oregon.

You ever been to Silver Falls? Thats a nice park with several falls. Walking into a deep forest, under the canopy is like stepping into another world. Its dark, misty, cool and has lingering scents of flowers, rain, plants and animals. If you open yourself up it heightens your senses. I find it humbling to be in the presence of something so raw and unchanged that has witnessed the development of mans history. To see cave markings of indians in the middle of a forest! How cool is that!
