| Video Discription | Welcome to our latest video where we explore the incredible Columbia River Maritime Museum in Astoria, Oregon! Join us as we discover this nationally renowned institution, celebrated for its vast collection of Pacific Northwest maritime artifacts, the largest in the country. Established in 1962, the museum has evolved into one of the finest maritime history centers in the United States. The museum's fascinating exhibits cover the dramatic and inspiring stories of the Columbia River and the Pacific Ocean, showcasing the lives of those who have navigated these challenging waters. With its striking wave-form rooftop, the museum, opened in 1963 and renovated in 2002, sits beautifully along the downtown Astoria riverfront. In this video, we take you inside the museum, highlighting its incredible accessibility features that made our visit seamless and enjoyable. You’ll see Cheryl navigating through the well-arranged gift shop and exhibits, all from her Whill Ci2. The museum's thoughtful design ensures that all visitors, regardless of mobility, can immerse themselves in the rich maritime history of the region. We delve into the fascinating aspects of maritime history, focusing on the notorious Columbia River Bar, known as one of the most dangerous passages in the world. The museum's exhibits bring to life the challenges of navigating this treacherous area, including interactive displays of shipwrecks and the ever-changing sandbars that make the Columbia River Bar so perilous. We also explore special features of the museum, such as sessions designed for visitors with sensory challenges and a variety of interactive exhibits accessible to all. Watch as Cheryl experiences the simulated ship's cab and the detailed ship models on display. The museum not only provides a wealth of information about maritime history but also showcases the ongoing connection between the Columbia River and the people of the region. From the historical significance of the Lewis and Clark expedition to the modern-day challenges of navigating these waters, this museum is a treasure trove of knowledge and experiences.
