The re-openings of Multnomah Falls Lodge, the Historic Columbia River Highway’s waterfall corridor, and a number of other recreation sites in the western part of the Gorge has gone well after one week.  Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area Manager Lynn Burditt told Wasco County Commissioners that safety measures at those locations have led to smooth operations so far.  She added it will be easier to access the Multnomah Falls parking lot from the eastern part of the Gorge with the opening of Exit 31 from westbound Interstate 84 by the Oregon Department of Transportation.  Burditt also said a ticketing reservation system for Multnomah Falls is being developed, and hopefully will be ready in the next few weeks.
