Volcanoes, lava flows, Ice Age floodwaters, and glaciers were Nature's tools of choice to carve a breathtaking 80-mi landscape now called the Columbia River Gorge. Proof of human civilization here reaches back 31,000 years, and excavations near the Dalles have uncovered evidence that salmon fishing is a 10,000-year-old tradition in these parts.
