Description

Michael S. Spranger. The Columbia River Gorge in Wash. State is one of the most majestic & unique areas in the world. Here the Columbia River carved out the only sea-level break through the Cascade range on its way to the Pacific Ocean. With the Cascades towering as high as 4,000 feet on either side of the river, one finds an everchanging panorama from lush Douglas-fir forests, craggy stands of pine & oaks, majestic stone-faced cliffs, & spectacular waterfalls, to windswept plateaus & semi-arid conditions. This illustrated document brings together information on its history, geology, ecology, natural resources, fisheries, & mgmt. issues.
