The county is composed of prairies and forests, rivers and mountains. The county provides the community with a wide range of recreational activities, but also strives for more. In 2013, Columbia County, the City of Dayton, and the Port of Columbia came together to update all three of their Parks and Recreation Master Plans and to create a single document to be referenced in their comprehensive plans. The following document was created with the help of students from Eastern Washington University, the three jurisdictions, stakeholders, and the community. The purposes of this document are to create a consolidated inventory of recreational opportunities in order to understand the future needs of the community and provide each jurisdiction with a Parks and Recreation Element in their comprehensive plans to be referenced and utilized for funding opportunities.

    Friends of Mt. Hood, Bark, the Mazamas, Northwest Environmental Defense Center, the Sierra Club, the Native Fish Society, the Portland Chapter of the Native Plant Society and the Federation of Western Outdoor Clubs April 4, 2011 VIA ELECTRONIC MAIL to [email protected] Ms. Christy Covington Mt. Hood National Forest 70220 E. Highway 26 Zig Zag, OR 907049 Re: Comments on the Timberline Ski Area Mountain Bike Trails and Skills Park Preliminary Assessment Dear Ms. Covington: Please accept the following comments on the Preliminary Assessment for the Timberline Mountain Bike Park Trail and Skills Park dated March 2011. These comments are submitted on behalf of Friends of Mt. Hood, Bark, the Mazamas, the Northwest Environmental Defense Center, the Sierra Club, the Native Fish Society, the Portland Chapter of the Native Plant Society of Oregon and the Federation of Western Outdoor Clubs. These organizations represent tens of thousands of Oregonians who care deeply about the natural, historic, cultural and recreational resources of Mt. Hood. Together, our groups have decades of experience working to protect Mt. Hood for current and future generations, and we have a long-standing interest in the mountain, its ecology and its history. Our comments are motivated by our collective interest in preserving Mt. Hood, the crown jewel of Oregon, for Oregonians and all those who visit from all over the world. For reasons that we discuss below, the Draft Preliminary Assessment (PA) is a deeply flawed planning document that cannot and does not provide a legal or scientific basis for the Forest Service to approve the construction of a mountain bike trail system in the high elevation historic setting of Timberline Lodge.

  • The Historic Winnemucca to the Sea Highway “Gateway to the Pacific Northwest”
    Feb 2004 WINNEMUCCA to the SEA Highway The Historic Winnemucca to the Sea Highway “Gateway to the Pacific Northwest” John Ryczkowski The Winnemucca to the Sea highway was developed to establish a continu- ous, improved all-weather highway from US-40 (I-80) at Winnemucca, Nevada through Medford, Oregon and on to the Pacific coast at Crescent City, California. In the mid 1950’s there was no direct route west from Northern Nevada across South- ern Oregon and into California’s Redwood Empire. Community leaders from points along this proposed link formed the Winnemucca to the Sea Highway Association. The association worked with state and local governments to fund the design, con- struction and upgrade of the paved roadway for this east to west link across three states. The association had envisioned one highway number 140 applied to the complete route, as the parent major US highway was coast-to-coast US-40, the Victory Highway. Nevada and Oregon used state route 140 for their respective sections of the Winnemucca to the Sea Highway. But the renumbering or cosigning of federal highways was an obstacle that the Winnemucca to the Sea Association never did overcome, thus the hope of a continuous 140 designation for this link was never realized. Currently the traveler will follow seven different highway numbers from Winnemucca to Crescent City, they are US-95, state route-140, US-395, state Association brochure circa 1960’s route-62, Interstate-5, US-199 and US-101. Winnemucca, named after a local Paiute chief, has always been a crossroads town.
