Two Sisters

This is a different view on some shots I took a over a week ago this spot is located in Washington along Hwy 730 near the Oregon and Washington State Line in an area called the Wallula Gap. The Wallula Gap was visited by Lewis and Clark and is recognized as a National Landmark for its geological significance.

Two Sister legend:

"Coyote, the mischievous spirit hero of many native stories, fell in love with three sisters who were building a salmon trap on the river near here. Each night Coyote would destroy their trap, and each day the girls would rebuild it. One morning coyote saw the girls crying and found out that they were starving because they had not been able to catch any fish in their trap. Coyote promised them a working fish trap if they would become his wives. They agreed, and coyote kept his promise; however, over the years he became jealous of them. He changed two of the wives into these basalt pillars and turned the third into a cave downstream. He then became a rock nearby so he could watch over them forever."
