Small riverfront park on the Cowlitz River with open viewpoints, riverside trees and basalt outcrops — good for moody waterscapes, reflections and intimate landscape frames. Best at golden hour and blue hour for warm light on the water and long exposures; weekday mornings are quieter. Easy public access with small parking area off town streets, no entry fee. Weather can be misty in spring/fall; bring layers. Local community events occur seasonally.
