Cathlamet on the map

To The Eagle,

Cathlamet has arrived! We are highlighted in the 2024-25 edition of the Washington State Visitors Guide! On page 73 under Local Culture, I read "CATHLAMET. A scenic stop on Highway 4, which skirts the Columbia River between Longview and the coast, this tiny town is home to Julia Butler Hansen National Wildlife Refuge, where you might spy Columbian white-tailed deer. Stop by one of the appealing eateries in town, such as The Spar for chicken-fried steak or biscuits with homemade gravy, or River Mile 38 Brewing, where you can sip a pint of the juicy Marine Haze NEIPA from a deck overlooking Elochoman Slough Marina." And on page 74 under Family Fun, it reads "Little ones will dig the purebred Jersey cows at Little Island Creamery in Cathlamet so much that they may not notice parents double-dipping on samples of the award-winning brie. Lingering lunchtime grumbles are solved with a quick trip across the bridge into town for crowd-pleasing monster burgers at Pizza Mill." This page has a great photo of one of the cows at the Creamery.

This was such a fun discovery for me. You can get a copy of the Guide at the Visitor Center in Kelso.
