關於
Sherars Falls is a small waterfall along the Deschutes River in Wasco County, Oregon, United States. It is located just north of the city of Maupin on Oregon Route 216 at Sherar's Bridge. It is about 15 feet (4.6 metres) high and is the last waterfall along the Deschutes River before it empties into the Columbia River. The waterfall is rated as a class 6 whitewater and has an administrative closure to boaters because of the danger. It was named after Joseph Sherar, a 19th-century wagon road builder. It is a place considered a sacred fishing ground by local native tribes.
