Show Notes
Oregons Abiqua Falls, a breathtaking ninety-two-foot waterfall, is set to become public property. Privately owned for over a century, the site has always been accessible to visitors. Recently, its nonprofit owners listed it for auction, causing concern among fans. The land, originally belonging to a foundation supporting a Benedictine abbey, was put up for sale due to increasing hiker traffic. A bipartisan group of state lawmakers stepped in, approving funds to purchase the property and keep it open. The state is now conducting due diligence before finalizing the deal, which could result in the falls being managed by local groups, tribes, or other agencies. Conservation advocates are thrilled with the states move, ensuring the falls remain protected and accessible for future generations.
