Columbia River Gorge Commission
Partnering to protect and enhance the NSA's resources
The Columbia River Gorge is a region unlike any other. We value our community partners and the energy, expertise, and ingenuity they share. Commissioners and staff strive to work closely with organizations and individuals whose efforts protect and enhance the scenic, natural, cultural, and recreation resources of the Gorge. Some of these partners include:
