In the Columbia River Gorge

The Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area spans southern Washington and northern Oregon. It runs from the mouth of the Sandy River to the Deschutes River. It is designated as a National Scenic Area and encompasses nearly 300,000 acres.

The gorge offers many beautiful vistas, hikes and waterfalls.  These photos were taken on our west coast trek.

A West Coast Trip - Segment Maps

Here's the itinerary for a really wonderful west coast trek. I'm including a few maps here. The first is the entire trek. Then there are three segments. I designed and did this trek a few years ago.

The yellow rectangles are stops along the way and I have photos for each of those, and points in between. In all, about 1,500 photos. This trek is 2,392 miles, per the odometer. It requires a minimum of 12 days. I broke it into three segments, or "legs."

I'l be posting more on this in the coming days and weeks.
