Along the Toothrock Trail, Columbia Gorge, October 2022

©2022 Gary L. Quay

I accidentally exposed this film like it was Rollei RPX 25, so I wasn't sure how it would work out, but it seems to be just fine.

This is along the Toothrock Trail, which is part of the Historic Columbia River Highway State Trail, near the Bonneville Dam. This section of the old road was bypassed in favor of a tunnel in the 1930's, and was left to go back to nature until the state brought it back to life as part of a hiking/biking trail that will go from Troutdale to The Dalles. Parts of it that were kept as roads when the old highway was vivisected to build I-84 in the 1960's are still open for cars. This section was one that was almost destroyed. There is a portion of the 1856 old portage road that went around Cascade Locks that still exists near this spot, but it was closed off after the Eagle Creek Fire in 2017. I tried to access it the day I took this picture, but the path was choked with weeds. I hope it can be saved.

The burn marks you see on the trees are leftover from the 2017 fire.

Camera: Hasselbld 500CM
Lens: 80mm Zeiss Planar
Film: Kodak TMax 400 developed by Blue Moon Camera and Machine in Saint Johns Oregon.
