Skamania County is a wild place. It sits in the southwest corner of Washington, straddling the Cascade Mountains. Trees. Everywhere you look, there are trees. The county is mostly national forest and wilderness areas.
You want outdoor adventures? This is your spot. Hiking, camping, fishing and you can really take your pick. The Columbia River Gorge cuts through, offering killer views and wind sports. Mount St. Helens looms to the west, looking down at you.
Small towns are across the landscape like Carson and Underwood. Each one has its own vibe. Stevenson, the county seat, has that laid-back river town feel. It’s not a wealthy place, but the scenery more than makes up for it.
