Sauvie Island

On a nice day in July we drove to Sauvie Island, stopping at the Virginia Lake Trailhead. It’s always an interesting hike, going around marshy, wildlife-rich Virginia Lake.

Green Tree Frog and Blackberries

In the summer the lake mostly dries up and turns into a large grassy meadow.

A side trail visits Multnomah Channel where anglers try their luck in the Columbia River backwater.

A fun morning indeed.
