Photojournalist D.C. Jesse Burkhardt's roots in the Columbia River Gorge run deep. From 1994 until 2011, he served as editor of the Enterprise--the community newspaper in White Salmon, Washington, in the heart of the gorge--and his daughter was born at White Salmon's Skyline Hospital. Over the years, Burkhardt has lived in several gorge communities, including White Salmon, Northwestern Lake, and Snowden in Washington and The Dalles and Hood River in Oregon.
