There’s a fantastic way to walk from the Vancouver side of the Columbia River to the Fort Vancouver Historic Reserve. It’s over the Land Bridge. I wish I had brought a ‘real’ camera instead of my lowly BlackBerry.
Before I get to my photos, here’s some information on the Land Bridge, part of the Confluence Project.
The land bridge is a real link connecting back to the Klickitat Trail, Lewis and Clark, and the development of the Northwest. It completes a circle that’s been broken.
