1. No. 698 Foot trail bridge at Wah-kee-na Falls. Columbia Highway Ore.
No. 698 Foot trail bridge at Wah-kee-na Falls. Columbia Highway Ore.
Description
A black-and-white photograph. At the bottom in white ink is written "No. 698 Foot trail bridge at Wah-kee-na Falls. Columbia Highway Ore." The leafy branches of a tree form a frame of the view to the left of the photo. Beyond, the white blur of the waterfall rushes down the cliff and continues as a creek under the arched stone bridge in the foreground. About eight women and men, and two boys, stand along the bridge gazing at the waterfall. The men and women all wear hats, and the men wear suits. The women wear ankle-length dresses. Off to the side of the waterfall stand two men, a woman, and a child, similarly garbed and also looking towards the water. All three adults have walking sticks, and some of the people on the bridge also have them. The Yakima word "wahkeena" means "most beautiful".

Noggi Wah-kee-na-falls Columbia Highway Ore.
Description
A black-and-white photo. The caption in white ink at the bottom reads "Noggi Wah-kee-na-falls Columbia Highway Ore." The waterfall tumbles down from a cleft in the cliffs and descends in tiers, at last running under an arched stone bridge to form a small stream that runs along gravelly banks lined with leafy plants and trees. On top of the cliffs are evergreens.
