Located about 45 miles west of Portland off I-84 in Cascade Locks, the Columbia Sternwheeler is the best way to see the spectacular Columbia Gorge. The boatride will take you approximately 2 hours. Seeing the Columbia Gorge from the Columbia River is worth the price of admission. The Columbia Sternwheeler also offers a brunch and a dinner excursions as well. The cost for just the excursion is $15 per person.

Probably the most scenic waterfall in the Cascade Gorge. Multnomah Falls soars to a height of 644 feet. Very spectacular sight.

So peaceful up there. =^oo^= | o00o Thu Jun 24, 2004 21:47 UTC Sounds like you had great time there in Portland. | matcrazy1 Mon Dec 1, 2003 20:34 UTC Very interesting page, beautiful area and amazing pictures in travelogues!
