#329 - Did you know that North America's deepest river gorge is located in Southeast Washington at Hells Canyon? The Lewis-Clark Valley is the gateway to Hells Canyon - a remnant of the last ice age which was formed by the flowing waters of the 1,000 mile long Snake River. In some areas, the canyon reaches depths of 7,900 feet! The best way to view the gorge is via jet-boat where you can expect to see Native American archaeological sites, wildlife, abandoned mines, shipwreck sites and homesteads.

I took this last Saturday, late afternoon. Please excuse the shakiness and image tilt toward the end. I was standing on a slant and holding my dog’s leash.
