  • Fort Clatsop National Park. Fort Clatsop was the winter encampment for the Corps of Discovery from December 1805 to March 1806.<br /> <br /> The park is underwhelming. It also manages to look like a cheap tourist trap. To be sure, it does have lots of information about the Corps, but the visuals and presentation left much to be desired.
  • Astoria-Megler Bridge across the Columbia River, connecting Astoria with the Olympic Peninsula.
  • We left the Fort, and headed to Astoria, located at the mouth of the Columbia River. More specifically, we visited The Astoria Column.
