This Culinary Cruise Through the Pacific Northwest Follows Lewis and Clark's Path
"During a jet-boat ride down Hells Canyon — the deepest river gorge in North America at roughly 125 miles long — we threaded rapids between basalt canyon walls flushed red with native sumac, glimpsed a Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep posed on an ancient lava flow, and watched intricate rock columns fanning away from one another; the canyon’s dramatic formations made me feel as if the earth were turning itself inside out, revealing 300 million years of uplift and erosion." - Becky Cooper
