Look hard-that's Mount Hood still snow capped
I 84 East
The road to Ainsworth State Park
Narrow-sure glad we have 'Boots' tagging along!

Sure hope a train doesn't come out!
Driving on the Dam
Look at the Salmon

Only the maze and 6 more ladders to go fishy

Fish maze where fish are counted

implanted
Made it!
Each step of the ladder is a foot higher
