The Discovery Center houses the Wasco County Historical Museum and its important collection of local artifacts, photographs, books and documents as well as historical exhibits that bring the past to life. The Discovery Center also includes an immersive exploration of the Columbia River Gorge from the Ice Age to the present moment, including a life-size replica of a Columbian Mammoth and other amazing ice age creatures that once roamed here. The Museum grounds have been carefully restored with native plants and our surrounding nature paths are wheelchair accessible.
