Halloween is here, and the Columbia River Gorge is offering a variety of events to suit every level of thrill-seeker. From family-friendly trick-or-treats to adult costume parties, there's something for everyone. Here's a look at what's happening in the area this spooky season:

Michael Shufeldt of Woodland, Wash., was found at about 9:48 am in the Columbia River approximately 1.75 miles west of where he was last seen near the mouth of the White Salmon River. The commercial fishing guide was the only one to perish when the wind blew up and a wave capsized his boat on Sept. 25. His six passengers were rescued.

It’s time to light that fuse.

Patriotism is blowing up all over the Gorge as the towns of the Mid-Columbia are riding the Fourth of July Rocket into a deluge of parades, runs, food, music and good times with our neighbors. The Dalles, Hood River, Goldendale, Cascade Locks, White Salmon, Stevenson, and Skamania County are all offering a charcuterie tray of fun peppered with gunpowder.
