MITCHELL'S POINT TUNNEL.
Beyond Cascade Locks and near Hood River is Mit-
chell's Point, the old Storm Crest of the Indians, ap-
proached by the most daring piece of masonry of the
entire highway. Here, as at Crown Point, and in many
other places, engineers had to be hung over cliffs with
ropes 150 to 200 feet long to blast footing enough to make
a survey. The most expensive piece of construction on
the highway is Mitchell's Point Tunnel.
