  I was in the Columbia Gorge last week and it was beautiful. There was less rain towards the eastern end - near The Dalles. Lots of Fall color. Cool and windy out.

  Indian Heaven Wilderness in Giffort Pinchot is gorgeous in the fall!
  Lots of color. I checked out the Thomas Lake trailhead and wasn't disappointed!

  This hike can go short (Blue Lake) or long as this website suggests.

  Have fun! It's amazing out there!

  Deshutes River, out of its confluence with Columbia (up the Gorge) is amazing right now. And Sunday will be "partly sunny" there. We will do the six-seven mile loop, but if you want to go further, it's pretty unlimited.
  
  Anyone wants to join us? I am fat, so I will hike slow (about two hours for the whole thing, with picnicing and resting and gawking)!
