Communication of information between neurons is accomplished by movement of chemicals across a small gap called the synapse. Chemicals, called neurotransmitters, are released from one neuron at the presynaptic nerve terminal.
Follow Trail 12 until it runs back into trail 1 and familiar sights and then you are only about 200 yards from the great Cumberland Falls. To the best of my guessing ability I would say this loop was about 8.5 miles long which took us about 3 hours and 45 minutes.
The trail, 2.6 miles round-trip, is paved most of the way up to protect against erosion. But parts of the trail near the top of the falls still get washed out. To reach the Multnomah Falls lookout, youâll wind your way up 11 switchbacks as helpful little signs point out.
