In 1890 Thunder Island is a small island on the Colombia River that was carved out of the mainland build the Cascade Locks and Canal. This area is important to Native American Fishermans who still use it today, so please visit respectfully. The island is just a few yards on the other side of the footbridge heading northwest.
