Washougal: Pendleton Mills and the Columbia River Gorge
Washougal sits on the north bank of the Columbia River at the western edge of the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area, in Clark County. The city takes its name from the Washougal River, which drains from the Cascade foothills into the Columbia immediately east of town. The gorge narrows downstream from Washougal as the river cuts through the Cascade Range.
Pendleton Woolen Mills has operated a mill in Washougal since 1912, producing blankets, throws, and other woolen goods. The mill remains one of the last operating in the Pacific Northwest and offers factory tours to visitors. Pendleton maintains its corporate headquarters in Portland but does much of its weaving and finishing work at the Washougal facility.
The Washougal Riverside Trail follows the Washougal River from the mill area upstream. The Steigerwald Lake National Wildlife Refuge, on the Columbia River immediately west of downtown Washougal, preserves more than 1,000 acres of floodplain habitat and provides walking trails along the river and surrounding wetlands. A levee removal project completed in 2021 reconnected the refuge to the Columbia floodplain after decades of separation.
The city's population is approximately 17,000. The Washougal School District serves public schools, with Washougal High School as the comprehensive high school. The city incorporated in 1908. Port of Camas-Washougal operates the joint marina and industrial park on the Columbia waterfront shared with neighboring Camas.
