Kelso: US26 at Sandy Maintenance
Few places in Oregon have a history as closely tied to the Barlow Road as Sandy. This 19th-century overland route brought emigrant wagons from The Dalles toward the Willamette Valley and helped establish a settlement on the Sandy River. Today, US 26 remains Sandy’s main east–west corridor, carrying traffic between the Portland metropolitan area and the Mount Hood region. The highway leaves town through wooded foothills near Kelso Road, where the western Cascades shape the setting more than urban development. Sandy’s historic downtown still serves as a practical stop for journeys into the mountains, with local businesses supporting a small community on one of Oregon’s principal mountain routes.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
