XE of the worfder spots on the Columbia Highway,, in
the daintiness and sublimity combined in its, scenery
Shepperd's Dell, which was donated to the highway
as a public park by George Shepperd, because he loved
'the spot and because he wanted it preserved forever for the
enjoyment of people who come along the highway. Mr. Shep
perd is not a rich man and his donation is one of the most
noteworthy in the history of the highway. At Shepperd's
Dell is one of the finest bridges on the highway and a trail
has been built leading down from the highway to the dell
and back to the beautiful little waterfall and springs in the
gorge. The view from back of the bridge, looking through
tne arcn made Dy tne concrete span, is one 01 tne most ucau
tiful along the highway.
