Our Canoes Still Travel the Great River

ancient & modern

“The Canoes of the natives inhabiting the lower portion of the Columbia River are remarkably neat light and well adapted for riding high waves. I have seen the natives near the coast riding waves in these canoes with safety and apparently without concern where I should have thought it impossible for any vessel of the same size to lived a minute. ” ~ Wm. Clark – February 1, 1806chinook canoe in Wahkiakum territory
