Rainier

Rainier occupies the south bank of the Columbia River in northwestern Oregon. The broad river channel defines this small Columbia County city, facing Washington’s riverfront communities of Longview and Kelso. The Lewis and Clark Bridge, completed in 1930, links Rainier with Longview and remains a prominent landmark of the lower Columbia crossing. Commercial vessels still use this major waterway, while forested Oregon hills rise beyond the river lowlands.
