After a long ride the bus and a visit to Mosier Community School, we arrived at Rowena Crest. It was such an amazing place. The contrast from our "end" of the Gorge to the east end was very evident. The kids all noted that that there were fewer trees, the soil contained a lot more rocks, and that the vegetation was quite different then what we are used to seeing. We had many questions like: Why did they paint the grass pink? What makes the climate so much drier compared to where we live? What kinds of animals live in the area? We do know that deer are around. We saw tracks, scat, and two of them jumping over a fence! Here are just a few pictures of our trip.
