Follow the Professor as he Takes You to Fort Stevens
Most RVers think of the State of Oregon as a forested wonderland and home of Crater Lake National Park. Most don't know that Oregon was the only place in the USA that was attacked by the Japanese Navy during WWII. Fort Stevens is located at the mouth of the Columbia River and guarded this strategic port of entry dating back to the Civil War. This is the same neighborhood where the Lewis and Clark Expedition spent the winter in 1805. Follow the Professor as he takes you on a tour of Fort Stevens and the surrounding area:
