Stevenson Landing

While in Stevenson, Washington, I came across this 200 foot long concrete pier that juts out into the mighty Columbia River. It's a cruise ship pier, but no ship was at it when I discovered it. The pier was very quiet, with only a few people around. I strolled to the edge, and took in the most beautiful, panoramic view of the River, the Gorge, the Bridge of the Gods. To my left were dozens of hang gliders zipping through the water and soaring in the air. To my right; a swarm of windsurfers taking off at the bank and circling around through their area of the river. It was so fun watching all the action, I probably stayed for at least 40 minutes.
