John B. Yeon State Scenic Corridor, State park in Columbia River Gorge, United States.
The state park features multiple hiking trails leading to two waterfalls, including Elowah Falls with its 289-foot drop over basalt cliffs.
John B. Yeon, a key financier of the Historic Columbia River Highway constructed between 1913 and 1922, provided support for regional transportation development.
The corridor demonstrates the Pacific Northwest tradition of maintaining natural spaces while creating access points for public recreational activities.
Located 35 miles east of Portland, the park connects to Interstate 84 and provides designated parking areas for visitors exploring the waterfalls.
The geological formations along McCord Creek create angular cliff structures that form unusual patterns around the waterfall viewing areas.
