Columbia River Canyon

★★★★☆ (191)

Advanced drift dive with moderate visibility. Even with bright daylight, it is dark and a good dive light is always recommended. Boat traffic at the marina can be a hazard and divers need to watch carefully. The exit is near the base of the 182 bridge.

Channel catfish and white sturgeon are common in this canyon, often juveniles. In the shallows bass, shad, walleye, and carp may be seen.
