An iconic Pacific Northwest scene of Punchbowl Falls pouring into a rocky grotto lined with vibrant green mosses and ferns. While inspiring landscapes such as this often seem like permanent fixtures, statues sculpted from the most impervious stone imaginable, we are sometimes reminded just how fragile the Earth is. Due to the careless acts of a group of teenagers, who thoughtlessly tossed firecrackers into Eagle Creek Canyon, the Eagle Creek Wildfire of 2017 ravaged the canyon in which Punchbowl Falls resides, and the full impact of the damage remains to be seen.
