The Lower Columbia River Region is roughly the size of the state of Connecticut, yet it has 3% the population. The combination of a large geographic area, combined with a limited human influence has left the area largely as it was when Lewis and Clark first arrived on their expedition in 1805. Some of the only remaining old growth forests exist here. Wildlife, exists in significant numbers. It is a beautiful area that boasts the cleanest bay in the Continental United States. Timber and fisheries thrive next to federally protected lands. It is a place of environmental balance. It is a place of purity that will provide you an insight into what the west has looked like for millennia. Whether you want to escape to the “wilderness”, experience the amazing ingredients the area produces, or harvest some of your own; the Lower Columbia River Region will not disappoint you. At Bear Claw we are focused on enabling others to enjoy this area as much as we do. Whether you simply want to enjoy the ingredients the area produces or actually visit; we are here to help.
