This is Part #3 of our Road Trip thru the State of Oregon. Such beautiful country. A must see if you ever get a chance to be in this part of the United States.
The Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area encompasses 292,500 acres, the entire length of the Columbia River Gorge. It spans two states, extreme southern Washington and northern Oregon,and runs from the mouths of Sandy River to the Deschutes River. The Columbia River Gorge is unique in both its natural and cultural history, as well as its designation as a National Scenic Area. Step through this beautiful, historic gateway into nature's wonderland of breathtaking geologic wonders, dazzling waterfalls, thick lush thickets of fern, wild rhododendron, and deeply shaded forests of oak.
Here is a brief list of not to miss topics: Multnomah Falls, the Historic Columbia River Highway, Timberline Lodge, Mt. Hood, Mt. Adams, Maryhill Museum, Bonneville Dam Lock and Dam, downtown Hood River, the Fruit Loop in Hood River Valley, wine tasting, a salmon dinner, a hike at Eagle Creek, crossing a bridge at Cascade Locks or Hood River, the Columbia Gorge Interpretive Center at Stevenson or the Columbia Gorge Discovery Center at The Dalles, and a rafting trip on the White Salmon River,
Multnomah Falls
Fed by underground springs from Larch Mountain, the flow over the falls varies, usually it's highest during winter and spring.
Multnomah Falls offers one of the best places in the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area to study geology exposed by floods. Five flows of Yakima basalt are visible in the falls' cliff face.

The Dalles Riverfront Trail

Right now, you can ride from the Columbia Gorge Discovery Center to The Dalles Riverfront Park, which is about 10 miles round trip. The path is paved, smooth and in excellent condition. It's a great place to ride with the whole family.
Stewardship for the Next Generation
Produced for the Columbia Gorge Discovery Center. This video is the final element of an exhibit on Stewardship of the Columbia River Gorge. The very last scene of the video takes place in the Great Hall of the Museum, the space into which the viewer exits the exhibit. 2011 marked the 25th Anniversary of the National Scenic Area Act, which makes it especially important that the video ends with a call to action, challenging the viewer to get engaged. This video received a Bronze award in the 33rd Annual Telly Awards competition in the Social Responsibility category. The Columbia Gorge Discovery Center Museum was named one of the Top 10 True West Museums by True West Magazine in 2016.

Columbia Hills State Park Profile
Park Profile:
Columbia Hills State Park (which includes the Horsethief Lake area and Dalles Mountain Ranch area) is a 3,338-acre camping park with 7,500 feet of freshwater shoreline on the Columbia River. Horsethief Butte dominates the skyline. It stands over the lake like an ancient castle. The lake itself is about 90 acres in size and is actually an impoundment of the Columbia River. The lake was flooded into existence by the reservoir created by The Dalles Dam. The park has eight partial utility sites, four standard sites, six primitive tent sites, one dump station and one restroom. Maximum site length is 60 feet (may have limited availability). In addition, there is one primitive hiker/bicycle camp site. Be aware that it can be very windy in the Columbia River Gorge, and be prepared for such conditions. All campsites are first come, first served.
Park History:
For centuries, the park was the site of a Native American village. The Lewis and Clark expedition camped at the village and described its wooden houses in one of their journals. The village was flooded by the waters of The Dalles Dam. Oral history states that the park received its former name -- Horsethief Lake State Park -- from workers in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers who developed the site. The workers thought the terrain was similar to that of horsethief hideouts in popular 1950s Hollywood westerns. The abundance of horses kept on the premises by local Indians apparently gave the workers their inspiration.The commission combined the park with Dalles Mountain Ranch and renamed the area Columbia Hills State Park in 2003.
Special Features:
The park contains Native American pictographs (paintings) and petroglyphs (carvings). Some of the oldest pictographs in the Northwest are found in this park. Artifacts associated with local tribes can be seen at the nearby Maryhill Museum of Art and the Columbia Gorge Discovery Center. Archeological sites and artifacts are protected by both federal and state laws, and their disturbance and/or removal is illegal and carries severe penalties.
Directions & Address:
Located on the Columbia River on the state's southern border in Klickitat County.
