Washougal, Washington

The Clark County city of Washougal is located in Washington State. It’s known as the Pacific Northwest’s “Crossroads of Discovery” and is found on the Columbia River’s Washington Side.

Washington’s oldest grange hall that’s still continually used, the Mount Pleasant Grange Hall, is located in Washougal as well.

Britain sailor Richard Ough and his family founded Washougal or Washougally Camp, as it was then known. The settlement was founded on the family’s original claim of the land, and among the first citizens of the community, the Oughs were generous in distributing money and food.

According to the Census Bureau, Washougal is made up of 0.88 square miles of water and 14.04 square kilometers or 5.42 square miles of land, thus giving it a total territorial area of 16.32 square kilometers or 6.30 square miles.

The Washougal River runs through the city for good measure because it’s also located in the scenic Columbia River Gorge as well.

And it’s grand prairie and lowlands are positioned at the Gorge’s western entrance. Drivers heading towards Washougal from the west can view Mount Hood rise above the Cascade Mountains as they move along the Lewis & Clark Highway.

As they approach Gorge’s gateway, the Cascade Mountains’ cliffs serve as columns or pillars to the mouth of the entrance.

Washougal High and Excelsior High are the city’s high schools.
