#74149: Overlooking Memaloose Island

Overlooking Memaloose Island

The Columbia River flows peacefully past Memaloose Island on a sunny day. A local pioneer named Victor Trevitt is buried on Memaloose Island. When you are there, you can see his grave marker. Native bones were removed during the construction of Bonneville Dam and are (slowly) being repatriated back to the tribes for reburial.
