bridge crosses the Snake River as part of WA HWY 261. The highway
continues northwest past Lyons Ferry Park where camping, swimming,
and boating occur (see previous page). The Corps faced serious rapids
at the Tucannon, Palouse and Snake confluence. Private Whitehouse:
"We took 2 of our Canoes at a time down the Rapids. The Men...that
could not swim...went by land.... They carried...some Rifle Guns &
Mathematical Instruments &ca. We were fortunate in getting all
our Canoes safe over these Rapids." |
