The
Columbia Wildlife Refuge is just miles
from our front door.
This refuge was formed by fire, ice,
flood and volcano as part of the Great
Missoula
Floods during the Ice Age. Deep canyons
were eroded into the basalt columns forming
Washington’s
famous Channeled Scablands.
The northern
part of the refuge is a combination
of cliffs, canyons, lakes and the remains
of lava flows.
This area is called the Drumheller
Channels
and was designated a National Natural
Landmark in 1986.
In this amazing landscape
we have
the opportunity to view many species
of watchable wildlife in their native
habitat. Additionally,
our area was just recently named
a National
Highway and Byway and is recognized
as the "Coulee
Corridor" which stretches from
Othello to Grand Coulee.
