  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Steamboats in the rapids approaching Cascade Locks, Columbia River Highway, Oregon A black and white view of three steamboats in the water approaching Cascade Locks on the Columbia River. The paddlewheel of the large stern wheeler to the left of the photo can be clearly seen. This ship is much larger than the other two at right, and has been identified as the "Bailey Gatzert". One of the other steamers has been identified as the "Charles R. Spencer". Their smokestacks all belch smoke. In the river some small islands can be seen. On the further shore, a low, well-forested riverbank with a settlement of houses rises to wooded hills. To the center right of the picture the locks are seen. The Cascade Locks were completed in 1896, and submerged in 1938 as a result of the construction of the Bonneville Dam.

  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: St. Peter's Dome, Columbia River, Oregon A tinted photographic postcard. The legend in red at the top reads "St. Peter's Dome, Columbia River, Oregon." The pillar of rock stands out in the landscape, with its dome-shaped top and stratigraphic layers. The tall formation bears scattered trees and plants. In the foreground of the photo is a forested cliff with a waterfall gushing out halfway down the slope. In the water by the near bank of the river is a steamboat. On the right side of the picture we gaze down past the woods to the river banks and a view of the Columbia and one of its islands. On the far shore are mountains. Title: St. Peter's Dome, Columbia River, Oregon A tinted photographic postcard. The legend in red at the top reads "St. Peter's Dome, Columbia River, Oregon."

  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Columbia River Log Raft ready for Ocean Voyage, Another raft under construction in background A colored photograph with the caption "Columbia River Log Raft ready for Ocean Voyage, Another raft under construction in background". In the foreground on the left side of the photo are log pilings and what looks like a water wheel or some sort of scaffolding on the side of a building. On the river and partly obscured by the pilings is a man in a rowboat. He seems to be regarding the cigar-shaped ocean-going log raft being pulled by a tugboat. There are chains holding the log raft together, running across the logs every few feet. White smoke or steam streams from the tug's smokestack. Another tug is approaching. To the right of the tugs is a log cradle where the rafts are formed. On the beach are what look like log buildings, with red roofs. At the far end of the buildings tall light-colored pilings are standing. Behind them and all along the shore is a lush forest.

  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Fisherman and Sturgeon Columbia River; Fisherman & Sturgeon on Columbia River A black-and-white stereographic photograph. A white man sits at the prow of a wooden rowboat which is pulled partway onto a bank of the Columbia River. He wears a hat with a rounded crown and wide brim, a light shirt and jacket, sturdy pants and shoes. A painter on his right leads from the bow to the left edge of the photo. He holds a slim pole longer than he is tall. At the right of the rowboat in the water is a dark rock, and the oars are laid so the handles are in the boat and the flat ends rest on top of the rock. Lying in the water at the man's feet is a sturgeon. The fish is almost half as long as the boat. In the background stretches the river, with forested hills above the banks.

At the bottom in white ink is written "No. 698 Foot trail bridge at Wah-kee-na Falls. Columbia Highway Ore." The leafy branches of a tree form a frame of the view to the left of the photo. Beyond, the white blur of the waterfall rushes down the cliff and continues as a creek under the arched stone bridge in the foreground. About eight women and men, and two boys, stand along the bridge gazing at the waterfall. The men and women all wear hats, and the men wear suits. The women wear ankle-length dresses. Off to the side of the waterfall stand two men, a woman, and a child, similarly garbed and also looking towards the water. All three adults have walking sticks, and some of the people on the bridge also have them. The Yakima word "wahkeena" means "most beautiful". Title: No. 698 Foot trail bridge at Wah-kee-na Falls.

A view of the Columbia River shore at Arlington, Oregon, on January 12, 1909. The Columbia River is frozen. In the foreground is the white riverbank, with a large boulder to the left. Near the shore on the right of the photo is a pier, with a sailboat at its end. In the center we see a stern-wheeler. A long rope leads out from it and is coiled on the frozen river. A group of five men stand nearby, close to a rectangular area of water that has been freed of ice. Their attention is on a sixth man who is standing in a rowboat pushing at the ice with a long pole. One of the group on the river also carries a long pole. The writing on the photograph says the temperature is 20 below zero and the first time in 24 years the river had frozen over.

  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Selkirk on the Columbia River above Wenatchee A black and white photograph of a steamboat identified as the "Selkirk" on the Columbia River above Wenatchee. The Selkirk was built in Wenatchee in 1899 and was owned by the Columbia & Okanogan Steamboat Co. She was wrecked at Rock Island Rapids in 1906. In the photograph we see her near a bend in the river. On the opposite shore is a low riverbank which quickly gives way to abruptly steep mountains, sparsely treed with conifers. Billowing clouds of smoke emerge from the ship's smokestack, but the reflection in the water and what looks like a line from ship to water on the right of the photo suggests that she is moored, or at least moving slowly.Several male figures are visible on upper and lower decks. It looks as though there is a cabin on the far bank.
