What April feels like

April is when the Gorge waterfalls run hardest and the wildflowers start on the dry eastern end at Rowena and Catherine Creek. Wear the rain shell around your waist most of the day; you will need it for twenty minutes at a time.

Rain arrives about 9 days of the month, so keep one flexible day in your plans.
