Vinzenz Lausmann Memorial State Natural Area came from the family of Vinzenz Lausmann. They gave 126 acres of rugged scenic land to the State of Oregon in his memory. This park adjoins two other state parks tract near Mitchell Point located about 5 miles west of Hood River on Interstate 84. A plaque honoring Mr. Lausmann is at the foot of the park, where a trail leads the visitor up the steep faces of fir, alder and maple which define the Columbia River Gorge in this area. The views of the Gorge from this trail are spectacular. There is not an overwhelming amount of wildlife that has been spotted in these areas, but every now and then a visitor will get lucky. Bald eagles make temporary nests for their young here occasionally. Smaller animals and rodents are spotted climbing the trees and dashing in and out of the dense area.
