Columbia River runs from the eastern boarder in Albert, Canada, through the state of Washington and runs into the Pacific a bit north of Portland. It is 2000 km long, and Its drainage basin is roughly the size of France. There are 14 hydroelectric dams on the Columbia's main stem and many more on its tributaries produce more than 44 percent of total U.S. hydroelectric generation.
We drove just the lower part in the state of Oregon.
A noteworthy scene is the Multnomah Falls, which is the most recognized waterfall in all of Columbia River Gorge. It’s estimated that 2.5 million people visit these falls each year. At 190 m, it’s the tallest waterfall in Oregon. The two parts drop steeply over basalt rocks.
