3Kviews
I am lucky enough to live near the Columbia River Gorge, and am fascinated by its beauty all year round. Here are some of my favorite photos – enjoy!
In the summer the grass turns brown – but the view is still GORGEous
A waterfall and some columnar basalt – my favorite part of the gorge!
A panoramic view of the gorge near Portland
A view from Mt Hood in winter
Brown grassy hills looks like suede
There are so many waterfalls in the gorge!
Mt Hood
Windmills and brown grass – much further east than the greenery near Portland!
The replica (intact) Stonehenge near Maryhill museum and winery
A view of the gorge, closer to Portland and still green(ish)
Foggy waterfall in fall
Early spring and the fields are glowing green!

Stunning pics! Makes me want to visit there. Thanks. :-)
I wonder how much of this has been burned in the fire?
Thanks for the awesome photos! I've lived in Portland area all my life. The Columbia River Gorge is my absolute favorite place, more so that the ocean. The drive on both the OR side and WA side are fantastic. The people are nice, too.
Terrific hiking, too, though maybe no so much now since the fire.
