Рет қаралды 9,738
2 жыл бұрынA journey through time in the Columbia River Gorge, emphasizing the River's importance as a passageway for Salmon, Native Americans, Lewis & Clark and commercial barges. ...and the role of Bonneville Dam, then and now.
The video also illustrates how the Bonneville Slide created the Bridge of the Gods and the raging rapids, which made this the perfect location for a lock and dam.
This film produced by Rich Deline/Executive Productions-Seattle and was made possible using public donations collected by Discover Your Northwest and volunteer contributions from employees of the Corp of Engineers and the Corps Foundation.

Good video. Seldom mentioned is that these dams were not only built for power generation, but also flood and erosion control. On the Missouri river as well.

So you would say "20 million years ago people didn’t exist?" But only for 6 thousand years? Doesn’t add up😂😂🤣

??? The earliest known 'humans' evolved around 2 million years ago in Africa and migrated North to Europe and North America. The first humans arrived in North America around 20, 000 years ago. Some controversy on the dates. The earliest evidence of humans along the Columbia River above Bonneville dates back to around 10-15,000 years after the last Ice Age. Hope that helps clear up any confusion.

I remember a friend telling me that he saw a sturgeon with a tag using the Bonneville dam lock to get up river. I didn't believe him till he showed me that data
