The 6th annual Columbia Gorge Enviro-House Tour will be better than ever this year.  With more and more homeowners committing themselves to reduce their impact on the environment, we are seeing exciting new eco-remodels, ultra efficient new homes, alternative energy systems, zero net energy homes, straw-bale and earthen buildings, and fun new uses for recycled, salvaged, and non-toxic materials.  This tour features homes in the central Columbia Gorge area of both  Oregon and Washington, including (but not limited to) the towns of Hood River, Parkdale, Mosier, White Salmon, Underwood, Lyle, and Trout Lake.
