Southwest Washington > Columbia River Gorge - WA

Beautiful day on the gorge, campgrounds that the parks websites say should be open are CLOSED!!! ARG. So a motel it was. Beautiful, snow free, (warm) hiking with a so-so (but suprising) view of mt. hood and an excellent view of st. helens, not to mention the columbia. Drive via courgar/carson (FS 90 I think) to get a great viewpoint of st. helens (and maybe hit the lewis river trail on the way).
