George

George occupies a dry plateau above the Columbia River in central Washington. The settlement lies within the broad Columbia Basin, where dark basalt terrain, irrigated fields and open skies create a landscape very different from the state’s wetter Pacific coast. Its name honors George Washington, the first US president. Just outside town, the Gorge Amphitheatre is a major open-air concert venue on the rim of the Columbia River gorge, bringing international touring artists to this small community. The river corridor marks a meeting point between agricultural country and the steep-sided terrain of the gorge.
