Nature
Halverson Canyon is a canyon in Washington that branches from the Columbia River valley. Its name recalls Halvor Halverson, a Norwegian immigrant who ran a lumber mill in the area, preserving a piece of the region’s local past. At the canyon’s base, a boat-in campground within Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area connects the site today to recreation along the Columbia corridor while reflecting its historical ties to settlement and industry.
