Devils Whisper….a 200’+ waterfall on the Oregon side of the Columbia River Gorge. Only unique, scary adventures get me into the overly crowded gorge…and this was definitely a unique and scary adventure.
We did this, what we believe was a first descent, in four rappels, although could have been 3-raps if our rope was longer. Rap one (50’+) gets you down close to the top of the entrance rap, rap two (100’+), that gets you to the top of the big 200’+ rap. We did the big rap (Devils Whisper) in two raps because I couldn’t be sure that the end of our 200’ rope was touching the ground…in fact I’m pretty sure it wasn’t.
Fun adventure with Keith Campbell.

You can see 3 out of the 4-falls…
