Hmmmm...Silver Falls State Park an amazing place to hike...just not in March when its raining and cold! We made it about 6 miles when my step-daughter gave up. She and I waited in the North Falls parking lot in the rain for over an hour while the other girls finished the hike and got the car.
This is an amazing hike! I would recommend though that if your just starting out hiking that you take the Maple Trail and go backwards to South Falls. Then as you get more comfortable with hiking do the Whole thing in like May or June...Just not March.
Oh also, don't get to close to the cliffs...some one died here the day before we went. One more thing too...with this hike don't forget to pack extra clothes if the trail is muddy and check your attitude at the trail head. I was a massive crabby pants the whole journey. Again, I wanted to punch someone in the face but I restrained myself...
Take time to complete this adventure just not in March. I am going to do this hike again maybe in September when the weather is better!
