I found this 8 minute documentary very interesting. I knew/know about the Friends of the Gorge as my mother was a member and she was passionate about helping preserve The Gorge for generations to come. What I didn't know was the backstory of the man who helped instigate/spearhead this campaign. Thankfully for all, they were successful with their mission/goal.

Anyone who loves The Gorge should watch this as it briefly delves into the formation of The Friends of the Gorge and how it made The Gorge a National scenic corridor.

Thank you John Yeon for preserving The Gorge and for donating the land in Cannon Beach to help created Ecola State Park! You the man!!!
