3-Island Crossing re-enaactment

Wendy and her kids came down to visit us for the weekend, and we went to Glenns Ferry to see the last re-enactment of the 3-Island Crossing. They re-enact the Oregon Trail pioneers crossing the Snake River. This is the 25th year of the re-enactment, but they are discontinuing it.

Here we are at a vantage point above the river, where we can actually see the 3 islands that the pioneers used to help them cross the river. It was unseasonably cold this weekend, with Friday having a high of 60 degrees. Brrr.



Displays were set up in the 3-Island State Park.


One guy sets up a t-pee and we got to go inside it.
