Travelogue Part III

The Gorge
The final stop on our journey westward was the Sasquatch Music Festival in George, Washington. The venue where the festival was taking place was called The Gorge, and it didn't take long to figure out why. The main stage of the festival was on the edge of a huge canyon, with the most beautiful scene directly behind the stage where a river ran through the canyon and no human developments or construction for as far as you could see. The festival was two days long, and we stayed in the camp grounds for three nights. There was so much music to listen to, with three stages running continuously for 10 hours for 2 days. We quickly met and friended some people who were from Portland, who thought it was incredible that we had driven all the way from New Jersey to be there. During the days we listened to a myriad of bands, and during the nights we took part in a giant camp out with thousands of other people. Then when the festival was over, and we were tired and wanting to go home, we set off again in the opposite direction back home.
