Journey through
Klickitat County
Amazing things to see and do in this one-of-a-kind county!
A special publication of The Goldendale Sentinel
Welcome back!
Gordon here, your guide on this journey. Why me? Well, I’m the official unofficial spokesman of Klickitat County who knows this area like the back of my – well, foot. Yes, my feet are really big, but I still prefer being called Gordon, if you don’t mind. There are more Bigfoot sightings in Klickitat County than anywhere else in the U.S.—I know this statistic well because I just made it up, but it probably is true. This county is one of the most beautiful, not just in this country, but the world. My snowy kin from as far away as the Himalayas have told me so. Growing up here, I can tell you this whole county is one long, fantastic adventure with no shortage of outdoor activities in splendorous surroundings. Go camping in the forest, visit the

You can find us by going to GoldendaleSentinel.com and clicking on the cover page of Journey on the right side of the page. You can also Google us, or go directly to ISSUU for this latest issue and all the back issues. At GoldendaleSentinel.com you’ll also learn more about our weekly newspaper and other special publications.
Trout Lake Ice Caves, pick huckleberries, go hiking, or sample our many wineries (please bring some back for me; they won’t let me in). Prefer water? We’ve got fabulous fishing, thrilling white water rafting, kayaking - we’re known as one of the wind surfing capitals of the world. And if you like events, there are fairs and rodeos galore in warm weather from one end of the county to the other. I can’t go to the rodeos, though; I spook the horses - some of the riders, too. If all that weren’t enough, we’re also home to the world-renowned Maryhill Museum (they’ve got original Rodin sculpture there, among other things—and you thought I had no culture). There’s also the award-winning Maryhill Winery with its weekend music on the terrace. We’ve got so many other wonderful wineries, we had to devote a
whole directory to them! There’s also the astronomically awesome (and famous) Goldendale Observatory where you can observe the cosmic gallery from one of the really powerful telescopes. And we’ve got our very own full-scale Stonehenge, so true-to-life scholars come here to see what the original was like. I can’t do justice to all we have to offer with these few introductory words, so, instead, please join me on a phenomenal Journey through Klickitat County, full of photographic wonders in the following pages. Stuff this guide in your pocket. It’s meant to be field-ready, not just another pretty magazine. Enjoy! Gordon Wilkins (aka BigFoot ) Klickitat County Resident
Gordon is a great spokesman, but we’d like to take a moment to
extend our personal thanks to you, our readers, for picking up this visitors’ guide—and as well to all the amazing people who make all the wonderful events in Klickitat County work so well for so many. Places are special, of course, but people are even more so, and this county is filled with fantastic folks who know how to make visitors feel right at home. We also value your feedback. Over the last several years, you’ve indicated Journey really works for you. It’s the most popular and most widely distributed locally produced publication here, and we’re very gratified it’s so popular. We welcome you to let us know what you really like within these pages and what we can do to make this publication even more useful to you in the future. In the meantime, have a great trip!

We’re starting our adventure at the western edge of Klickitat County in Gifford Pinchot National Forest, near Trout Lake. It encompasses 1,368,300 acres including Mt. Adams’ wonderful wilderness. There’s something for everyone here - breakfast over the fire*, Ice Caves, Natural Bridges, and the Upper/Middle/ Lower Lewis River Falls. Get directions to all these from the Trout Lake Ranger (509395-3400). You’ll be delighted to find magnificent Mt. Adams watching over most of our journey through the county. Second only to Mt. Shasta, it’s the largest (not tallest) mountain in mass and area on the entire west coast of the U.S. So because we’re so close to it here, it looms in splendor. Visit fs.usda.gov/giffordpinchot

Natural Bridges
Ice Caves
The spectacular geography of Gifford is largely influenced by Mt. Adams. During its volcanic heyday, lava ran freely from this monumental mou nt. As it dried, lava tubes were formed. Som e collapsed to create amazing ice caves. Others formed arched, natural bridges whole families can walk over. Visiting these, we’ll experience both ends of the tempera ture spectrum, so dress in layers! On our ice capade, we’ll need sturdy well -treaded shoes because the cave’s floor is mighty slick! And be sure everyone has their own flashlight, ‘cau se it’s dark!. Heck, just read the caution sign below! Trails run across the top of both the cave s and the bridges. The Trout Lake Ranger Stat ion on 141 (509395-3400) can direct you to both. Just be sure to watch below for any lurking troll s! Brrrr! Ice cave s are the perfec t hot day way to chill.

In 1805 the Lewis and Clark Expedition recorded seeing Mt. Adams. They misidentified it as Mt. St. Helens, which had been previously discovered and named. This is the earliest recorded sighting of the volcano by European explorers. Between 1830 and 1834 Hall J. Kelley led a campaign to rename the Cascade Range as the President's Range and also to rename each major Cascade mountain after a former President of the United States. Mt. Adams was not known to Kelley and was thus not in his plan. Mt. Hood, in fact, was designated by Kelley to be renamed after President John Adams but a mistake by a mapmaker placed the Mt. Adams name north of Mt. Hood and about 40 miles (64 km) east of Mt. St. Helens. By sheer coincidence there was in fact a large mountain there to receive the moniker. Since the mountain had no official name at the time, Mt. Adams stuck, even though the rest of Kelley’s plan failed.

What a treat when the Lupin e & Balsam root are in bloom !
Hikers, bikers, painters, photographers, and Sunday drivers love Dalles Mountain Road for its exquisite, year-round beauty. This spectacular drive runs right through Columbia Hills State Park; so if you’ve gone to the park first, just keep heading east on this sometimes bumpy gravel road. If you’re on Hwy 14, you’ll find Dalles Mountain Road at about milepost 84.5. Turn north and enjoy! On a clear day at the top, there’s a great vista of Mt Adams, Mt Rainier and the Cascade Range.

A World of Wine in 40 Miles
... is how the Columbia Gorge Wine Region is affectionately known due to it’s unique topography and climatic changes. In this 40 mile stretch encompassing both sides of the Columbia River in Oregon and Washington, an extraordinary combination of climates, soils, elevation and geology combine to produce some of the best and most varied grape varietals in the Pacific Northwest. A great transition occurs between the alpine forests of Underwood Mountain to the deserts of our eastern side, and our latitudes are shared with some of the finest wine growing regions of Europe, including Bordeaux, Rhone Valley and Italy. The Columbia Gorge is part of two American Viticultural Areas (AVA), including the western edge of the Columbia Valley AVA and encompassing all of the Columbia Gorge AVA, which was established in 2004. In our region, the Cascade Mountain range restricts the grand Columbia River into a narrow passage. This mountain range runs north into British Columbia, and south to California, creating a drastic climate difference as rains and clouds from the Pacific move inland and get hung up on the mountains. Hence, the areas on our western border see much more rain than the deserts of our eastern border, with rainfall diminishing more than one inch per mile moving East. Soils deposited from ice age floods and volcanic eruptions define the geology. The river canyon acts as a corridor for cool marine winds, which is why the Columbia Gorge is known worldwide as a premier windsurfing and kiting playground. And our two crowning beauties, Mt Hood and Mt Adams, create vertical elevations that allow for a huge range of grapes to be grown with success. Long famous for its fine pears, apples, cherries and other fruits, it wasn’t until the 1970’s that residents started experimenting with grapes. The vines prospered, and soon folks began to recognize the Gorge as a viticultural gem. Currently, over 70% of Gorge grown grapes are exported to other wine regions such as the Willamette Valley and Walla Walla, but plenty are crushed here in the Gorge at local wineries the day they are picked. From Albariño to Zinfandel, the Columbia Gorge really is a World of Wine in 40 Miles!

Ginger Swanson, of Windermere, brings you: 24 years real estate negotiation experience in WA & OR Outstanding home marketing, ensuring worldwide exposure Professional photography, staging advice, and impeccable customer service
And she lives in & gives back to Klickitat County! Client Testimonials for Ginger through Zillow: “Wow, What an awesome real estate agent! Ginger was wonderful every step of the way. First, researching the comparable properties, presenting us with a comprehensive report to show comparable properties, and suggesting a listing price that was higher than we expected. Next, helping us stage the house, making recommendations on how and where to place things to make the house look tremendous - she even brought flowers! Then, advertising the house with what was obviously a superior strategy as we had 12 showings in 15 days. Finally, helping us navigate through our offer, providing helpful insights and suggestions without causing us to feel any pressure to accept or reject the offer. All this adds up to Ginger selling our house for a higher price than we expected in just two weeks! “We have recommended Ginger to two family members and a neighbor. She has already helped one buy a property and another sell their home. We will continue to recommend her to anyone looking for a realtor in our area. After this experience, we would never consider buying or selling any real estate without Ginger representing us..... she is a real estate rock star!!” ~ P&L Casal 9.25.2019 “Ginger is superlative. If you don’t list with her, you do yourself a disservice! She goes the extra mile to display your home, used professional drone photography, but, more important, she is honest, kind, and extraordinarily well-informed about the market. You cannot do better than to associate yourself with Ginger. We love her and give her our unqualified endorsement. If we had 100 houses to sell, Ginger would have 100 listings!” ~ Dolly S. 1.22.19

Maryhill State Park
Now we’ll visit beautiful and relaxing Maryhill State Park and campgrounds, right on the Columbia River. It’s part of WA State Parks, so unless it’s a free day*, you’ll need a Discover Pass to enter. It’s right next to the lovely little town of Maryhill that will delight your eye in the spring with its blossoming fruit orchards and quench your palate in the summer with luscious fruit, honey, and other delectables. It’s also a stone’s throw from our very own true-to-scale Stonehenge (next page). *Find “Free Days” at parks.state.wa.us/167/Discover-Pass-Fees otherwise DiscoverPass required.

Stonehenge War Memorial
This amazing, full size replica of the original neolithic struc ture in England was designed and built by Sam Hill in 1918 in honor of and dedicated to the WWI servicemen of Klickitat Coun ty who died, many in their teens, in the service of our coun try during the Great War. As 2018 was the 100th anniversary of the end of WWI, each of these 18 servicemen were honored on the day of each of their young deaths. Details are available at: maryhillmuseum.org/visit/stonehenge-memorial Aptly overlooking the magnificent Columbia River Gorg e, Stonehenge is a monument to heroism and peace. Sam is buried here, too.

Maryhill Museum of Art founder Sam Hill was one of the Northwest’s first and most vocal advocates for modern roads. He was president of the Washington State Good Roads Association and spent much of his life championing the importance of highways in the Northwest. In 1913 Sam Hill convinced the Oregon governor and legislature to visit Maryhill and see the 10 miles of demonstration roads he had constructed over the prior four years, at his own expense, as a way to experiment with road building techniques and surfaces.

MARYHILL LOOPS ROAD: Remains an attraction for history and scenery fans. Maryhill Museum.
14, the historic Maryhill Loops Road was the first macadam asphalt-paved road in the Pacific Northwest. Prior to the construction of US 97, it served as the only road between the Columbia River and Goldendale, Washington. Historically, it was part of a larger road that encompassed several miles, over which seven different experimental roads were constructed. It rises 850 feet in a series of 25 curves, eight of them hairpin turns, at a grade of 5 percent. In 1998, a 3.6-mile section of the road was completely refurbished and received the Outstanding Project of Historical Significance Award from the American Public Works Association, Washington State Chapter. —Maryhill Museum of Art

Carousel Museum Bickleton is about an hour east of Goldendale on Bickleton Hwy - and what a scenic drive it is! Known as the “Bluebird Capital of the World,” Bickleton residents work year-round to keep the little houses maintained and ready for the next generation of Bluebirds. You’ll see these lovely little feathered friends throughout the eastern part of Klickitat County. Another must-see is Bickleton’s Carousel Museum in downtown Bickleton, operated by the Alder Creek Pioneer Association (ad on facing page). It has a new 4,200 SF addition and features interesting collections, such as woven wheat and barbed wire, antique lunch boxes, and, of course, the restored carousel horses. The Annual Bickleton Car Show on the Saturday of Labor Day weekend features classic and modern cars and is a great place to meet other motor vehicle enthusiasts. And don’t miss the amazing rodeo, the second in June. It’s the oldest rodeo in the state and draws quite a crowd! See their ad, pg. 42. And while we’re on oldest, Bickleton is also home to the oldest continuously operating tavern in Washington, the Bickleton Bluebird Inn.
Beautiful Bluebirds all summer long!
