Friends protects the wonders of the Columbia Gorge for future generations to enjoy. The beautiful Columbia Gorge ranked #6 in the world for iconic destinations by National Geographic Traveler - ahead of every U.S. National Park. It was even home to scenes from the movie "Twilight." This project supports our work to inspire youth to protect the Gorge, educate hikers on its natural beauty and history, and protect the wildflowers, waterfalls and wildlife that make the Gorge a national treasure. project reportread updates from the field
