"Travel just 30 miles east of Portland to this deep canyon forged by the Columbia River that’s home to gorgeous waterfalls, epic vistas and seemingly endless options for outdoor recreation.
Crown Point offers jaw-dropping views from this 100-year-old observatory. Hood River is known for microbrews and served as a jump-off point to the Columbia River, one of the most famous kiteboarding and windsurfing locations in the US."
