Westbound UP manifest heads down the Columbia River towards Portland; 45.7037,-121.6183. Access to this vantage point is from Interstate 84 Exit 58: Mitchell Point Overlook. This is about 3 or 4 miles west of Hood River. A trail (scramble?) leads up a short but steep slope. Another view is afforded from the parking lot, but is not nearly so high. July 17, 2012 2:07 PM
