A Rich History
This small community
is located on the Washington side of the Columbia River, with its
lowlands and famous prairie situated
on the west entrance to the
scenic
Columbia River Gorge. Motorists who approach Washougal from the west
on the Lewis & Clark Highway are impressed with the majestic display
of Mt. Hood rising
above the Cascade Mountains framed by the columnar
cliffs that
signal the gateway of the Gorge and the great Columbia River that
reflects its view. This setting of
natural beauty has inspired many an explorer, both old and new. It
can be accurately stated that Washougal is the "crossroads
to
discovery" in the Pacific Northwest.
Shortly after Capt. Robert Gray, a Boston fur trader, discovered the
mouth of the
River in May of 1792, the famed British
explorer George Vancouver traveled
to the region to verify Gray's discovery.
In October of 1792,
Vancouver directed a young Lieutenant named William Broughton to
lead a party of men in a long boat
up the Columbia to explore its head waters. Broughton came as far as
present day Washougal and landed near the east end
of Reed Island.
He named Mt. Hood after
a British admiral and Point Vancouver after his commanding officer.
Broughton incorrectly assumed the head waters of the Columbia
originated from Mt. Hood.
In reality, the river originates some 1,000 miles to the north and
east in Canada, but it would be 18 years later before the
entire
river was charted by another
famed British explorer named David Thompson. (article)
