Back-road adventures are the best when they provide sneak peeks at nature. That's really true when you travel to the east side of the Columbia River Gorge, where wildflowers are "bustin' out all over" as we discovered through our recent Mosier meanderings.
There are many prized Oregon destinations that provide special scenic wonders as spring mows the winter season away. The Columbia River Gorge is a place where the views are never twice the same and moments of beauty are easily found along trails that you can hike or bike. The eastern point of view to the Gorge is especially huge, sprawling and hard to miss at places like the Columbia Gorge Discovery Center in The Dalles. It's a timeless place that's easy on the eyes and provides memories that last a lifetime.
