Golden And Silver Falls State Natural Area
About
Golden And Silver Falls State Natural Area is a 145-acre park in Oregon, about 14 miles from the town of Glasgow. As a state natural area, it is a small, protected parcel rather than a large recreation complex. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show July and August highs around 66 to 67°F with only about four wet days a month, while winter months bring highs in the low 50s and rain on most days. Paddlers will find Glenn Creek less than a mile away and Matson Creek about 2.6 miles off. Farther afield, the Loon Lake Waterfall Trail and the camping at Loon Lake Recreation Site are both roughly 9 miles away.
