KLICKITAT & SKAMANIA COUNTIES
Klickitat County is located in south central Washington at the junction where the Columbia River Gorge cuts through the eastern slopes of the Cascade Mountains.
It encompasses 1,908 square miles. According to the 2020 US Census data released on July 1, 2022, the population is 23,271.
Skamania County is located about 40 miles east of the Portland metro area, in the beautiful Columbia River Gorge. Almost 90 percent of the county is timberland, mostly within the Gifford Pinchot National Forest. Much of the non-timber land is concentrated in the southern strip along the Columbia River, and falls under the protection of the Columbia Gorge Scenic Area. As a result of these factors, the county has a small population and job base. According to the 2020 US Census data released on July 1, 2023, the population is 12,460.
