The Columbia River Gorge in all its mightiness. This is where the Oregon Trail Pioneers traveled by long wagon trains and under all sorts of hardships. It has now become a major thing for visitors to see. Especially Vista House that rises high above the river. The day I took this shot, it was filled with sunshine and clouds...but a mist was beginning its trek westward. We often get some blustering wind thru this "wind funnel" and also a bit of snow and cold weather. And when the fronts come in from the Pacific, we are in for trouble! But on a day like this, it was beautiful and peaceful. Please feel free to comment.
